Turning Twenty-Two

A Merry Christmas to you all! I didn’t post anything on Thursday and have felt guilty about it ever since. But as you guys know it was my birthday (yippee!) and I decided to take the day off and decorate my apartment for the holidays. (Hence the pictures)

I got this pillow @ TJMaxx and freaking obsessed!

To be honest I don’t feel twenty-two. It doesn’t seem possible that almost a year has passed since I started this new adventure in Wisconsin.

A friend of mine and I were talking about how quickly life can change; how new chapters can begin before we even have said good-bye to the old ones. And sometimes those passings hurt more than others. I know one day will come when my chapter here will close and it will be a bittersweet parting. (The family I work for are so loving and kind) But God reaffirms, almost daily, that for right now I am exactly where I need to be!

This leads me to a new topic I want to tackle in the coming months. I’ve wanted to tackle it since I started my blog- A nanny section! (It is called A Nanny’s Notebook after all) We’ll cover a day-in-the-life, what to expect when pursuing a career as a nanny, how to discipline kids who aren’t yours, and so on! Plus kid’s fashion/style, places to shop, crafts- Basically anything and everything a Modern-day Mary Poppins needs to know! (It’ll also be great for you grandmothers, aunts, babysitters, nursery workers and teachers!)

So you guys be thinking of any questions you might have about a modern-day nanny and I’ll try my best to answer them. (I’m also thinking about interviewing some moms I know for that extra wisdom only moms can know. Would you guys be interested in something like that? Let me know! And let me know if you’re excited for this new topic. Or if you have anything you’d like me to tackle next.)

Until next time…
