to be the boss. I had to babysit tonight. 4 little rascals, as my grandma would say. For some reason tonight I felt more powerful then usual. I think because I was snooping. I was looking at their calendar. The parents never tell me where they are going...and in some ways I think I should know, but I guess it's just getting into their personal lives. So what the hell, I look at the calendar. They have 5 kids, in 4 different schools. The 3 oldest ones are all in some sort of sports activities. Everyday on that calendar someone had some kind of practice or an appointment. How does she do it? I guess if that is your job, you can do. The house is huge and always clean, granted they have a housekeeper that comes once a week. I was just thinking how much I want to do that. Just raise the kids. People always roll their noses at me. Like, "why would you ever want to strive for that?" I honestly think it would be something I am good at. I am always taking care of people, I am organized, on the ball. Granted, I am going to get my education first, but if I don't have to "work" then I would gladly stay home with my kids. Raising the kids is a full time job though. Sometimes I actually do think how I would do it considering I am tired when I am done watching them for only a few hours at a time. I wonder what it’s like to do that around the clock! But I know the kids help one another out. They are actually whipped into shape by their parents-which is good, but seem to be very free willed when I am there. But it’s hard actually, because I want them to like me, but listen to me at the same time. I think I look into the future too much.
It’s 10:50 and I’m hungry, that means I need to go practice my 45 second speech one last time and go to bed so I will get up in the morning so I can eat!
