As I previously mentioned, I am nannying two little boys right now. Jackson is so spunky it is just cracking me up. Here are some things he has been saying to me lately.....
The very first day I started, I picked them up and we were at a stoplight, he leans forward and says, "I must ask you a question. Do you celebrate Christmas, Hannukah, or Kwaanza?" I replied with Christmas and he said, "Just making sure."
One day I was making dinner and I took off my sweatshirt cause I was hot. So I just had a t shirt on. He walks up to me and says, "I wanted to ask you this like all day. Are you having a baby?" I didnt know whether to laugh or cry....
Riding in the car he says to me.... "Why dont you have a job?" I told him he was my job and I was so lucky wasn't I! Then he says, "Well you need to get a REAL job like a builder or McDonald's worker." Thanks Jack, I'll work on it!!
(On the way to the doctor's office.....) "Um Al....people are passing us. You should probably just maybe drive faster."
These last two are from today.....
I asked him if he was normally allowed to play outside with his friend Maddie and other kids. He told me, "I am practically a seven year old adult. It's like we run the neighborhood."
Then while eating dinner, I told him three more bites cause he didn't like the fabulous meal I made him. He said, "Okay okay, just PLEASE give me a moment to digest."
Haha I swear this seven year old kid is the most entertainment I have had in awhile!! It's a pretty fun job to have! Out of the mouths of babes.
On another note, today we were at McDonald's and there were two women sitting in the booth next to mine. All the kids were playing and they were clearly talking about me saying I looked WAY too young to be the step mom and all this "other woman" shenanigans!! I was seriously annoyed that they were talking about me! Liam came over to get a drink and they turned and asked if he was my son. I said no, then before I could say anything else they asked if I was his stepmom. I said no I was his nanny. And then they were both like "Oh thank goodness! We knew you were too young. We were hoping you weren't taking on the mother role already!" When I told their mom Sarah this story, she said I shouldve replied with, "Yeah I had an affair with their dad and got pregnant so now we are married." Hahaha next time, next time.
