Haha i hope you guys get my pun there!
Anyways just wanted to update those of you who like following my journey with me! So about 5 weeks ago now (wow i feel like ive been here a year) i moved just south of new york city to a nice little town/village called Pelham, New York to become a nanny! Thanks all from the help of my big sis. I live with the family on the 3rd floor of an old renovated house. IT looks out right over long island a beautiful view.
The children i am responsible for are EDITH (2 and a half) and Martin (4 months old). My days start at around 730 am with changing diapers/clothes/ breakfast ; then an activity of some sort art project, craft, park time if weather allows, library for story time ! Its been a hard adjustment esp. for Edith who has had a lot of changes from new baby brother to moving in a new house and a new caretaker now. She is doing very well and making great progress. She says some pretty hilarious things and i think we have started to keep a journal of her sayings now. After the activity we usually do lunch and then naps, and that is pretty much the day! MARTY as we like to call him is growing so big every day, at this age they pretty much like to eat and sleep and coo and ahhh a little bit here and there. He likes to spit up very often which you start to just think its routine now and not gross.
It has been a great fit thus far and im very happy where im at. Its very nice to have my sister just about 25 minutes away. I usually end up spending the weekends with them and loving on my 2 beautiful nieces as much as i can. My brother Christopher is also nearby in Queens, Ny and is busy doing illustration, i think he just finished illustrating an animation for sony which turned out wonderful , he is so talented and gifted, love him! His apartment is awesome too.
I have also found a great, solid church with the Help of my friend Melissa not too far away. It is called Hillsong NYC! God is so good and gracious even when i am not faithful He is so so Faithful.
Im excited too because i have the opportunity to travel to Europe this summer (Prague, Germany, Holland). With an organization called AIS: Ambassador in Sport. Basically taking and playing soccer into these communities, working with local missionaries and building relationships through the great game of SOCCER! Im very excited.
Hope you guys are well, drop me a line to tell me how you guys are too and how i can be praying for you.
