Babysitting
The other day I found myself helping out a friend whose babysitter backed out on her last minute. So for the entire day I had a one and a two year old to enjoy. These two little girls reminded me of the pleasure of having really little ones in the house. They also reminded me of the work.
We spent the day exploring the toys we have, there was block building play, colouring, tea party time, kids computing fun, grocery store play, feeding the horses, drums and piano play, and then... one went down for nap time.
This allowed the oldest one and I to bake. She looked so cute in Hadley's little apron and chef hat. The day passed by fairly quickly. I quite enjoyed it.
I was on duty at the church the day after for watching the babies during C4 moms so I got my fill of babies.
The next day I appreciated all that my kids can now accomplish on their own.
Like no more diapers. :)
