[[I made the assumption that she would be willing to babysit him... let me know if this is a vast oversight and I'll come up with something else heart ]]

Ranald kissed her child on the head, and the little dinosaur boy grinned a toothy grin at her. He was pretty quiet for a child or his age, no real crying or calling out... he rarely threw a tantrum, and the other members of Ranald's family tended to refer to him as Mr. Cool.

"So, I'm just out for a couple of hours... he likes to watch Tv, and you can give him a popcicle or a fruity cup if he gets hungry." She smiled at the girl who had graciously 'volunteered' to babysit for her, before turning to her second youngest son (her other two children were at the jivvin center for the day with Elayeth). "Rufus, you'll be good for Silver now, won't you?"

"Yesh Mama." He grinned his toothy smile at her again and then waved at her. "Bye!" He wasted only a second grinning at his new babysitter before turning and running off on his little raptor legs.

Ranald sighed. "He's really easy for the most part... just... enjoy." She pulled out a 20 dollar bill and handed it to Silver. "Just in case, I'll pick up some cash on my way home.... Thanks again Silver."
