Walking makes it so much worse. But the babies can kill you. I remember babysitting for a friend's kid overnight. He woke up every two hours! But I give him a pass since he had health problems we didn't know about at the time.

If you look beyond their messy nature, kids are the most adorable creatures ever.

At 1.5 years, 'inside voices' would not really be understood. But in another 1/2 year, that same child will more likely be able to differntiate between various sound levels.

If you threaten a kid with a lollypop, they understand. Or even if they don't understand, they will listen - for awhile.

For the past 7 years I've been a babysitter/youth leader, so I know what messy children are like. It's hard staying clean. But I love babysitting.

Preschool teacher is not a career option? ;)
