Anna's in the States for the Summer and I asked her if she'd like me to watch her baby.
There I go again, offering to watch someone's kid.
But this babysitting job rocks!
He doesn't wet the bed and expect me to change it in the middle of the night.
He doesn't ask for juice or snacks but doesn't like to be left alone either.
He begs me to pick him up and play with him all the time.
This kid sings to me when I play with him.
He's got a melody for everything.
He sounds really bad when grumpy........
That's when he needs a check up from the neck up (aka a tune up).
And I find myself pulling out old tricks I once knew to make this kind of kid happy.
(aka relearning some basic chords because I'm a novice at playing)
It's not a difficult job.
He just keeps begging me to play.
Yep, this babysitting job rocks.

I think "kids" would like me more than the "kid" your watching... I am NOT musically talanted what so ever and this little guy would be very lonely if I was watching him... Ha ha
I do admire anyone who has an ear for music and the abiltiy to play a note...
Brooke - not much to admire here. I really wish I could play the guitar but I only barely know a few chords, hardly stringing them together. I'm working on it this summer though. It's a great release and another way to be creative and also worship.
thanks for the comment! I have just been thinking a lot lately :o) I am glad the Baby-sitting is going well!! I <3 Kids!
