"I know exactly how you feel," Thali said with a nod of agreement. "I didn't work while my oldest two were younger, but now that they can help with babysitting--they really are good with these two. Except..." she leaned in to whisper, a grin crossing her face. "I wouldn't put it past them to teach Sammi and Reiya bad habits."
Reiya smiled and patted Alome back. "Kay, I play too," she said, not really reacting to the hug. She was used to Sammi's hugs, she got them at least four times a day, and hugs from the rest of her family, too. It was awkward for her. "Sammi be Marco! We be Polo, kay? Sammi no find us!"
Of course then, Sammi heard her sister's plan. "I find you!" She retorted. "I best finder ever!"
