As a soft late afternoon light encases the master bedroom in a shimmering gold glow, Alex walks in and discovers her youngest child, whom she has been looking for since he went missing while she was on the phone with a client, just a couple of hours after the little boy returned home from pre-school.

As he is trying to find his foot in his daddy's tall pant legs, Alex can't help but ask the obvious.
"Sky, sweetheart," She begins. "Why are you wearing your daddy's jeans?"
