A Real Job
Jesikah has been trying to spread the word to a few people at church that she is turning 12 soon and is interested in babysitting jobs. She is very good with kids and babies and is responsible too. She was so excited when she got her first real babysitting job. She babysat the Richards' kids at our house including the baby for a few hours three days in a row during the first week of June. Of course, I was here to help and assist which turned out to be a very good thing because I was able to help train her on how to babysit and how to care for babies. She was so receptive to everything I said that I truly enjoyed the days with her. She was thrilled to be paid for something she loved, but she also learned that babysitting can be a lot of work. It was a good experience for her.

yay! good for her! I remember when i started babysitting other kids besides my siblings- i also loved doing that and i learned a lot. I just caught up on most of your posts(i've been out of town for a week) so happy birthday Tessa! And i am interested in this "paying program" that you mentioned below. More details and examples when you get the chance please :). Good for you about no more TV. I never grew up watching a lot and i find that i do more now. It is SO much bettter if you cut it out of your life or limit it! Glad to read all your interesting posts :)
I wish we lived closer to you, we need a good babysitter! It looks like she did a great job, and you're a great, patient Mother to help her get started.
That is really awesome that she is interested in babysitting. She looks like she had fun:)
I wish that we had a little Jessikah around!
I never understood why you liked babysitting so much! But it is a great trait to pass on to your girls!
And a good way for them to earn money and figure out what to do with it!
