a REAL job

      All throughout high school I never had a job. I feel so blessed that I never had to get one because believe me if I did I personally think that I would have not graduated. But I wasn't just handed money either, I had to do extra chores around the house and clean my dads office. None of my friends really had jobs in high school either so it wasn't a big deal. Once I graduated I started watching my cousin's little girl then I moved to another country but that's a story for another day! Anyways when I moved back I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. To this day I still have know idea what I want to do with my life, but I do have an amazing job that I love so much and I didn't have to go looking for it either, which was nice. I was on Facebook when a family friend said that her sister-in-law (who i also know) was in need of a nanny. So I commented and I the job was mine. Easy as pie! Well I have learned that it is easier said then done. Since it was my first REAL job I didn't know what to expect. It was fun at first playing with three kids every day what's more fun, right? Well, it got harder I was running out of patience, and I was always angry, but then one day it all changed. I don't know what it was but I just kept reminding myself that these are kids that are looking up to me. I have to take care of them and help them grow and learn and also that no job is easy but I have to take it day by day and take deep breaths I mean really really deep breaths.
    But I do feel so blessed to have this amazing job that teaches me to keep going even when i'm to tired and to stay calm when all the kids are crying.

* they love to wrestle with each other its so cute until one of them gets mad

But look at these cute kids who wouldn't love spending everyday with them. Everyday I spend with them I learn so much and all the hard days are nothing compared to the good days. When they run up to you and yell Miss Kylie!!!! At the top of their lungs or when it takes me 10 mins to leave because they were having so much fun and the don't want me to leave. I love the way they see the world, it has made me look at the world from a whole new perspective, it just makes life look so much better. Seeing things as kids do. They fly so much higher then the rest of the world. I love it!!!
