My life the past week

This week has been quite fun! Bits of it were hard and not very fun, but the good times out way the bad :) I am in Milwaukee babysitting for Jessica as she works as main choreographer at Kids from Wisconsin.

This week I have learned what it's like to be a parent. To take care of kids, you have to be able to make decisions and stick with them, be selfless, and you have to be able to say no. The last one is probably the hardest. It is very hard to not give in and give a child what they want when they are throwing a fit because they want something. Another necessary thing that is sometimes hard, is following through with a discipline. If you want a kid to take you seriously when you say your going to take something away, or give them a time out, you have to follow through with it! If you don't, do you think 'counting to 3' or threatening to take something away is going to work? haha nope it's not!

This week has been very fun! I would say these kids are way more behaved than misbehaved! Some of the things we have been doing are playing game, barbies (poor brock is a good sport), making a marble track, watching movies, reading books, coloring and watching tv on the couches. Another thing we did is take webcam pictures! here are a couple:
