Answer: RAISED CHILDREN
(Happy Mother’s Day, everybody! Today’s Jumble had a lot of interesting elements to it. No new clue words, but some really great jumbling. I really liked “enroll”, “creamy”, “driver” and “goalie”. I almost had to back into “goalie”, but I decided to write out letter combinations instead. I got it on the eighth try. I’ve had trouble with this word on the past. It’s a good thing that I did get it, because I don’t know if I could have solved today’s answer without the L and the I. The answer letter layout, without those letters, really would have been a tough nut to crack. I think Jeff went all out on today’s cartoon. This might be from an older photograph, because his kids are a lot bigger than this now. But, that is definitely Jeff and Kathy! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
