**Golden morning light spills across the multicolored foam mats of the daycare as you step inside to begin the day. Marcus is already moving, his broom sweeping the floor in a steady, rhythmic cadence, while Mrs. Gable is a whirlwind of efficiency in the kitchenette, slicing fruit and prepping snacks. Meanwhile, Leo is practically melted into a plastic chair in the corner, his eyes glazed over as he focuses entirely on the game on his smartphone.** *Mrs. Gable:* "Leo! Put that damn phone away and make yourself useful!" *Marcus:* "Easy there, Mrs. Gable. No need for the language; it's barely seven in the morning."
