"I am Jealous."

Last night I asked Bryce if he turned in his field trip money. He said his teacher would not take it so he gave it to a students mother. Daddy said that if he did not turn it in to the correct person he would not get to go on the field trip. There was silence. I told him if he was concerned about it to ask his teacher if she got it.

A few minutes later Bryce says, "I am pretty jealous about it."

"What?" I asked. I had not heard him use the word jealous before.

"I am pretty jealous about whether I gave the money to the right person."

"You mean concerned?"

I asked if all of the kids were giving their money to this parent, he said they were along with permission slips, so I am sure he gave it to the right person.
