Fill 29 Card 2: Deadline
"Maggie sweetie, is something bothering you? You've hardly touched your dinner tonight?" Steve Rogers asked, looking at his daughter's face closely.
Jamie and Alexis listened intently as their sister answered.
"Yes, Daddy. My science project is due in three days, and I don't think I will be able to finish it on time!"
Steve didn't ask her how long she has know the project was coming up due but instead he asked her, "Honey, if you worked on it non-stop for the next three nights after right up until you go to bed, would you be able to finish it?"
Maggie thought about it for a second, "Yeah, maybe."
"How about if I help you with whatever it is you need to finish?" he suggested.
"If it is allowed," Sharon said, joining the conversation, "Maggie, sweetie, are either of us allowed to help you?"
"Yes, Mommy, Daddy can help me as long as I do the work of making my project myself," Maggie said with a nod.
"Good. Let's finish up with dinner, and you and I will go see what we can do tonight to help you meet this deadline."
