Samson is one of the un-lucky ones. My husband and I work all day so he's in his playpen from 7:30 am - approx 6:00 pm. I get up at 5:00 to spend some time playing with him until it's time to leave. In my guilt, I load his playpen with tons of toys and I always leave him treats with his food. Then we never go out at nite and rarely spend more than an hour away from the house on the weekend if ever. In fact, this evening instead of going out for a nice dinner we both felt guilty (and were having so much fun playing with Samson) that my husband went to go get carryout. When he gets old enough to be able to give him run of the house I'll feel less guilty.
