Lucky us

We have the best babysitter. The boys absolutely adore her. Last night while we were out, they did the following:
  • Played Battleship
  • Went on a walk
  • Played with balls in the backyard, losing a few over the fence (hence the walk)
  • Made a cake
  • Made a milkshake
  • Roasted marshmallows on the stove
  • Read stories
  • Cleaned up the kitchen and washed the dishes (actually she had Abe wash them---good for her)
(This represents more fun than the boys usually have in about a week, I think.) AND everyone was happy and ready for bed when we got home. Wonderful.

    Will your babysitter drive to Provo? I'll pay her for the commute.

    Then, after putting the kids to bed, did she go to sleep in a rocking chair and plug herself into the wall to recharge herself? (I think this is an old LDS movie that I saw when I was a kid. The granmother is a robot who recharges herself at night. I think she's a nestran.)

    How about Vegas? Would she commute to Vegas? I need to go on a date!

    Wow. You sure she isn't dipping into the cooking sherry?

    Beth--I TOTALLY remember that movie and it was creepy. But if the kids are happy and asleep . . . who cares? :)

    How old is this wonder-gal? Also, I personally have never roasted m-mallows over a burner. Is this a safe activity to do with the sitter? It seems like every time I turn on the burner at my house the smoke alarm comes on soon after, so I don't know if I could risk it...
