Landan has been in school for a little over a month and I am so excited by how he is doing and all of the friends he is making. I was inspired to start to talk to some of the other moms and get to know them too. So last week we went on field trip and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to get to know some of them. I started with one mom who seemed to have kids around my boys ages or close enough, so we were talking and she made it known very quickly that she was not their mom, she was the nanny. Ok. I was wrong about that one. I started to scan the group and started to wonder who else I was wrong about. Almost all of the kids in school have nannies, some have au pairs, and almost all of them have some one who helps them regularly helps them with there TWO kids.
One woman told me she has her au pair watch her youngest while she drops her son off at school. I leave my youngest in the van while I run in to drop Landan off a school. I lock the doors and run really fast. Do you know how hard it is lug the twins in those carriers?
On Thursday, I over heard two nannies planning a play date for two of the boys in his class. I guess my plan for getting to know some of the moms is going to be me getting to know some of the nannies.
The irony of it all is, I think some of them don't even work!
Oh well!
