Dad rushes out of the bathroom.

“Lola, maybe you could get your head wet or something?”

“But Dad, I’ll catch my death of a cold!”

“Then the baseball cap, Lola. Your mother will be home in an hour, and . . .” Dad gives me an Out of Gas look.

“Don’t worry, Dad!” I say. I race past him down the hall and I find my baseball cap in my room. It’s kind of tight on account of my pile of hair.

Downstairs, Dad is chopping vegetables at the counter. He looks at my head, but I think he sees carrots or cucumbers because he keeps chopping away.

“Want me to set the table?” I ask, helpful as I can be.

“That would be terrific, Lola,” Dad says. And then he sings,

“When I see you walking in the sunshine, my dear, everything is absolutely, perfectly clear.

I love you. Yes, I love you.”

Ding dong. I run to the door to get it. It’s Amanda, Jessie, and her Bammy, along with Maizy and Barkley, two bags of dog food, a stack of dog food cans, two bowls, two leashes, and a whole lot of barking. Oh, and a long list of dos and don’ts.
