6 kids...and a Mommy Spotlight!

   My sister-in-law was in town this weekend with her fun family.  She is expecting baby #4 and was not feeling well Sunday morning.  She and her husband decided to sleep in and keep their youngest--sweet J.J., and asked if we could handle the two oldest--2 beautiful girls.  Sure, why not.  So, I got up, got ready and got kids ready.  I did the hair on 4 GIRLS!  We made sure all kids had shoes on, and coats on then loaded up 6 KIDS, 8 YEARS OLD AND YOUNGER in our vehicle. 
   I turned to my husband on the way to church and said, "Whoa!  I did 4 girls hair today...and we are only 10 minutes late!"  He said "Way to go honey.  You are SUPERMOM!"  Oh that felt nice.  So, I earned the title...at least for a moment.  We sat with the 6 kids, me all by myself for about 15 minutes--whew!  We all survived and it wasn't a bad experience.  Luckily tho--we did have fruit snacks and Goldfish to make church a little more calm. (hee hee!)
   So I have to give a shout-out to my friend Jennifer.  She is expecting baby #7 any time now.  I so admire her and her husband for being amazing parents and having such love and patience with 6 kids.  And the kicker is...she has 5 girls!!!  I don't know how you manage to do all that hair.  I guess, luckily some of them probably are able to do their own hair now.  ;)  You are an amazing SUPERMOM--and woman Jen!  Good luck with #7!

Job Description...

...At the moment I am serving 5 clients on a daily basis.  (Four of those are minors.)  My hours are Mon-Sun (yes, that's 7 days a week) from the time my clients wake up, until the time my clients go to sleep each night.  I am also "on call" 24 hours a day. 
   I provide Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner for all of my clients.  I transport them to their meetings, obligations and events.  I plan and prepare for their projects and run all of their errands including buying their food and clothes.  I also serve as their laundry services making sure those clothes are clean each day.
   The pay is below what I would call "optimal", but there are other personal rewards that make this job sooo worth it.  The nice thing is the job security...I know there is no way I'll get laid off...they all rely on me too much.  And I think in a way, I rely on them too.  Even tho some days are better than others, I really do love my job.
