The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Pamela looked at Corinne kindly. "It's okay, my dear. I just wanted to see you if you're doing okay. You must be tired after taking the kids to the amusement park yesterday." Corinne shook her head. "No, they were quite well-behaved. Grandma, please come in and have a seat."
