my day...

So this afternoon Jimmy picked me up from school and we went to Mill Lake to go rollarblading and walk around a bit. It was really fun...we saw so many little ducklings...When we got back to the car I had a message on my phone. It was from the lady I used to babysit for. She had a check for me because they had made a mistake on my T4 and it would be easiest to fix if they just gave me the money. I always talk about the kids I used to babysit so I thought it would be fun to take Jimmy over to see them. I worked with this family for about three years and I had not seen any of them since last september. So Jimmy and I pulled up and the 10 year old (Carrera) came out of the house...she saw who I was and went screaming into the house..."Melody's here!!!!!" It was pretty funny. I went inside and they had a new puppy so they were all excited to show him to Jimmy and I. The younger two kids had changed quite a bit since I last saw them. Robert (the 7 year old) is now obsessed with hockey. He knows what time the games are, what channel, and what teams are playing. His sisters said he always cheers for the winning team...I guess he doesn't have a favorite. The youngest (Breanna) has shot up since I last saw her. She is at least a few inches taller and she has missing teeth so she was talking with a bit of a lisp. She is still adorable!!! She was hopping around on one foot...like she always does when she's excited. It was fun to see them again...and neat for Jimmy to be able to meet them. I can't say I miss the job...but I sure do miss the kids.
