That's great, Joylyn, a 13-year old being able to check the correctness of
the information given! :-))
My 18 and 17-year old will accompany me tomorrow to the volunteer bf
counsellors training day, as babysitters.
In October, I was not even there (was in Vienna that weekend, for the
VELB-conference), but she went anyway.
She was supposed to look after three children: one mom and baby didn't come,
the second was so restless, that she was with mom all the time, and the
third...? Jojanneke was still thrilled, when a couple of days later she told
me that she had been wearing this little baby almost the whole day in a long
sling, fully wrapped around her body. "Mom, it is SO sweet, such a little
baby against your body!", she said.
Yes, it is... and I'm sure she will remember that when she becomes a mom
herself. I hope the two sisters will have a great day again with
babysitting, like I will have with my oxy-workshop. Who's levels will be
higher...?! ;o))
Bye,
Marianne
