Full Circle
I’ve started a new chapter in my life this week. Long ago when I was still a young chicky wanting a family of my own, my neighbors and long time friends started a family. I ended up keeping that first baby until he started school and his baby brother too. That older kid is now a grown man with a baby of his own. And yes, you’ve guessed it, I started babysitting his daughter while they work. She is not yet six months old and her Mom has recently returned to work. I may only keep her until January as they are on a waiting list for a local Christian Academy/Daycare facility, but I have been told if I want to continue keeping her after January, they will be pleased, most especially since they are expecting again! I have told them we will take this a day at a time and see how things go. I am traveling to their home since it is literally a zoo here at mine. The noise level when these dogs are barking will wake the dead… and most assuredly wake a wee sleeping babe. I absolutely enjoyed her yesterday and I’m certain however long I daily see her, it will be an enjoyable experience. Her grandmother kept her today since she was off work for the holiday. Strange how things tend to come back around, isn’t it?
