Several weeks ago I started a part-time job. A few hours a day, I go to work and leave Sam with one of my sister's oldest and dearest friends, Dusty. So far Sam has really enjoyed it and I feel so lucky to have someone I can totally trust care for Sam.
Meanwhile, Jackie is always saying she wants to see Sam. Just a week or two will go by and she is saying, "How is he? Does he miss me? I need to see him!" Dusty is spending time every day with her nephew and I think there have been times Jackie wouldn't mind trading places with her.
Last night Sam and I went to one of Miranda's soccer games. Sam loves going to James and Miranda's games! He runs around cheering and gets to spend time with Jackie and Mike.
During the halftime break, Jackie poured attention on Sam. They ran, chased and jumped the entire time. Sam was having a ball. When the second half started Jackie returned to her seat to watch the game.
Not knowing why the fun was over, Sam stood in front of Jackie. "Jump! Jump!" he said.
"I can't jump right now, Sam," Jackie answered. "I am watching Miranda."
Without missing a beat, Sam retorted, "Dusty jumps."
He was just making conversation and not trying to be manipulative - right?
