Summary
Twelve-year-old Laura's formerly cool mother becomes a nerd. The model-turned-full-time-mom yodels, sings, and nearly sets the house on fire while toasting bread. Laura makes a list, "Things to change about MY MOTHER." But she adds more to the list than she changes, and then, her mother announces she's pregnant. Now, Laura worries the whole neighborhood will find out what her parents have being doing-right in the house.
