Chapter 10: Helping the Family (James Armistead):
While James, Sarah and Henri's older brother was away on a ski trip for part of the summer, Sarah was left to take care of Henri all by herself. I agreed to help Sarah take care of Henri. "Angel, can you help me?" Sarah inquired. "What is it, Sarah?" I asked her back. "I can help you with anything you need help with." "I want to learn to baby-sit you and Henri," Sarah explained to me. "But, I don't know how to." "Come on, Sarah," I told her. "You're 14 years old. You can do anything if you put your mind to it." We then agreed to play card games like Uno and Go-Fish for a while until we felt bored. Soon, Sarah's mom came by and asked if we needed anything. She also noted that she was proud of her only daughter to baby-sitting two 10-year-old kids for the first time. "I have snacks in a paper bag if you guys are hungry," I then told Sarah and Henri. "Sure, Angel," Henri then agreed. "I could always use something to eat." I took a bag of Lay's Potato Chips, Henri took a bag of Doritos, and Sarah took a bag of pretzels. "Thanks for the snacks, Angel," Sarah then thanked me. "You're welcome," I then replied. I also noticed that Sarah and Henri were wearing the exact same outfits they wore earlier in the year when it was School Picture Day back in September.
