Yesterday on our way to the park Seth wanted to take a ball with him, so I explained that since we were going to be walking on the street he had to be responsible with it and hold it with two hands. Jerome said “Seth, I’ll tell you what ‘responsible’ means!” Seth said “What?”. And Jerome continued, “Responsible means to keep it!”.
After being dropped in the street once, shared with strangers, and being sat on, the ball did make it home with us.
