I just got an email from the mother of the kids I used to nanny. The little girl is now 5, almost 6, and the little boy will be 4 in December. I started taking care of the girl when she was 16 months old, and then when the baby was 2.5 months I started doing a weekly thing, then moved in with the family when he was about 10 months old. So hard to believe how big they've gotten - little miss just started kindergarten this year.
Anyway, I'm going to visit them this weekend - I miss those kids so darn bad - and the mom just emailed me a request. Before I left, I made them an audio tape of me singing bedtime songs to them. That was our 'thing' - I would put them to bed a few times a week and would sing them all these little songs my grandmother taught me when I was little. Well, apparently they've worn the tape out, so the mom emailed to ask if I could make them a new one. Said she didn't know how they were going to get to sleep without it...
Awwww...I just love little ones.
Funny thing - they look like they could be mine...red hair and all...
