I start today!
Yesterday was my last day with the family I've been nannying for and I have to say it was a bit heart-wrenching. The new nanny shadowed me and she hit it off with the girls right away, so I don't worry about them. But there's a little hole in my heart where those girls will always belong. They drew me pictures and wrote letters to me as a surprise and I totally teared up when they gave them to me. Here's the one from Zizi, three (as dictate to her father):
"Dear Erica,
I will miss you so much. I really want to play with you right now and I don't want you to go away. And I want you to stay in your house forever and don't leave the city. And I love you a really really lot, and I hope you like all of these colors on the envelope. And I hope you love everything and I hope you love flowers and green. And I love you, too.
Love,
Z"
Erg, bittersweet day.
