((lavieenrose)) yay for walking the dog...maybe you could think of it as ice skating?

I started both my new babysitting jobs today. It went very well. I got up on time, I greeted parents and discussed important things (like getting copies of the kids insurance and what they like to eat). I made breakfast for myself and one kid. I played with one kid while the other napped. I made lunch for her. I talked to her mom when she picked the kiddo up. I did not reply in a nasty manner when this mom butted in about the car seat for the other child, instead I calmly explained 3 different times that the car seat was in fact a car seat not a booster (as she was claiming). Yes, it converts into a booster but it has a harness for children between 20-65 lbs then it converts to a booster. It is ranked number 1 for safety by consumer reports. The other child (not hers) will be perfectly safe in it. I took a little nap. I got up with the boy, made lunch again...fed him. I played with him. I had a nice chat with both his parents (at different times). It was a good very productive day.
