I love my job!!!

This is all four boys; from left: Ashton, Aaron, Gordon and Dallin. They love to go to the park and it is just down the street, so we go often...

This is Aaron

This is Eden... my baby girl.

This is Ashton, he is my buddy!

So for the last 3 months I have been working as a nanny for Ben and Audrey Jepsen. He was one of my seminary teachers last year. They have 5 kids: Dallin who is 9, Gordon who is 7, Aaron who is 4, Ashton who is 3, and Eden who is 1 and a half. They are such amzing kids and they are so helpful. We always have fun together and I have been enjoying every minute of this experience. It is definatley going to help me when I get the chance to have my own kids. Anyway, this morning Aaron was taking forever to finish his breakfast and he got up late, which resulted in him missing his bus. The thing that I laugh at everyday is that he always says that he doesn't want to go to school... but then we get him dressed and ready and then we sit and wait for his bus, and once he sees the bus he is alright and ready to go. He comes home everyday and tells me how much fun he had... and yet the next day he says he doesn't want to go. So today he got to sleep in and got an awesome breakfast, and he heard the bus (it stops in front of the house) and he ran to the window and said, "well, there goes the bus... that means I can't go to school." And I said, "If you dont go to school, what are you going to do??" And he sat there for a minute thinking... still not dressed and still eating. And he finally just got up and started getting his clothes on. I asked him what he decided and he said, "I decided to go have fun today." It just made me laugh because I know how much fun he has at school, and he has a great teacher. But since it's been cold outside he just wants to stay inside and watch cartoons, and it is sad to watch him just sit there. So the last few weeks I've been trying to come up with activities we can do that he enjoys... instead of sitting in front of the TV all day. He doesn't like to do things when he is asked so I just kinda give him the option, and let him decide. When it's warm outside we love to go out and play, but this weather is my favorite although it's not the best for playing. So I'm glad that he has the chance to go to school and learn all kinds of new things and play.
