Our Experiment

Last week was a little hectic for us and we found on a couple of occasions that Jared and I needed to be someplace without the kids (hospital to visit a friend, dinner with Jared's boss, etc). We had talked about it several times before, and MaKady had been begging us for a long time, so we finally agreed to let her babysit Paige. I was very nervous at first, but we came home both times and Paige was in bed, MaKady was reading, and the house was spotless. MaKady did such a good job. I'm not sure that she is completely ready to watch other people's children yet, but maybe soon.

That is so nice! Maybe you'll have her trained by the time the baby get's here! We could try her on my kids and come hang out at your house. Just kidding...but it is always nice to know a good babysitter in the neighborhood.

It is so nice when you have a built-in babysitter. I can totally see MaKady being a awesome babysitter.
