Haha Hey guys! I had the funnest time tonight...
Let me tell you the tale of a splendiforous night! :)
Ok. So my friend Rebecca calls me at like 6:45 or something and says: "Hey , can you do me a favor?" and I tell her ok. she has forgotten that she has to babysit some kids, and she's not going to make it to the church to babysit the choir parent's children. So she asks if I can watch them with a counselor. So with mom's permission, I got to actually do this. I went to the church and find that I'm going to have to watch three kids (2 sisters and a brother). Mr. Kevin says that we can go outside and play kickball!! but we went ouside and instead the kids attacked the playground. So we (mr. Kevin and I) kinda just stood around while the kids ran up and down on the slides. After a few minutes the youngest sister was telling me to "watch this" as she climbed on the jungle gym, and stuff, and then I follow her onto the pavement where there are a whole bunch of little 'kiddie cars'. She asks me if I'll push her and the older sister suggests that we play bumper cars! :) Haha I push the girls around and then the brother is on a little tractor thing, and we're all flying around the court . And then the kids all ran over to the playhouse. the younger sister told me to get in and for some reason I started talking in a british accent :) and the kids loved it. It starts this whole game of playing 'House' that we ended up playing the rest of the night. :) It was so funny! The kids were very imaginative and silly and I was supposed to be the younger sister's daughter, and all this silly stuff :) It was so much fun! I didn't think I was going to have any fun at all today because I am sick. but I'm really glad I did go and babysit those kids :) I love kids and hanging out with them because even though things are so simpler than my highschool life, you are still amazed by the purity of their emotions,as well as how smart they can be about things you would never think kids would understand :). It also gives me a break from having to really worry about the homework I'm supposed to be doing and everything else at home and junk. For a while we were all just playing house and having fun . and that was it. just having fun. It kinda brought me out of the sad and nasty mood I'd been in all day :)
It's just good to take a break and be silly. It's good for the soul. Like campbells-chicken-noodle-soup-good-for-the-soul-type-good :) haha well that's all for a while.. Ciao for now!
