Another glimpse of parenting
Categories: Personal
I was given a vision of the teenage years on Sunday at Chili's, which was a little scary. But I'm also getting a glimpse into the toddler years as well, thanks to Claire. Sarah is back to being a nanny, at least part time, for my colleague Lisa's daughter. The past couple of days Claire has been coming to our house, so I get to spend a little time with her in the morning as I finish getting ready for work. Although she certainly prefers Sarah to me (and who wouldn't?), having the little 16 month old girl there in the morning actualyly makes it harder for me to leave -- and she's not even my daughter! She's sweet and loveable and supremely interesting, to the point where you just want to hang around and watch her get into things. Kids that age need a shirt that says -- "Be Careful -- Consciousness Being Formed" -- because that's what happening. And it's fun to watch.
