30 Thoughts All Babysitters Have

I know that mommy doesn't let you have a snack before lunch -- nice try, though.

30 Thoughts All Babysitters Have

I love kids. And I love babysitting. There are days when the kids I babysit can be perfect little angels, but there are other days when they can drive me up a wall. But no matter what, babysitting is the best job I've ever had. If you're a babysitter like me, maybe you've had some of these thoughts.


1. I’m going to make today a good day.

2. Even though she can be a bit much to handle sometimes, the pay is worth it.


3. I’m so glad I don’t work retail anymore.

4. Little kids are easier to deal with than cranky, old customers.

5. I don’t feel like playing right now; I’ll just sit here and watch the kids play.

6. I hope there isn’t a hidden camera in this room.

7. They would think I’m just a lazy babysitter.

8. That isn’t true though; I played tag with them outside before.

9. And I did arts and crafts with them.


10. We could watch another episode of "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" instead of playing Barbies for the fifth time today.

11. Maybe it’s an episode we haven’t seen, although I think I’ve seen every episode.

12. Oh wait, I definitely didn’t see this episode where the clubhouse loses all the color!

13. Ah yes, Princess Sofia is on next.

14. Do we have to go back outside? This is my favorite episode.


15. Please eat your lunch; if you don’t eat, you get cranky.

16. Not one more bite; three more bites of your pizza if you want a snack later

17. Do you think anyone would notice if I ate some of these potato chips?

18. Maybe I’ll eat some Oreos (there’s still a lot in this package), they won’t notice.

19. Why don’t you kids take a nap? Don’t kids like naps?


20. How do you remember the name of every stuffed animal and Barbie doll?

21. Sorry I called your doll by the wrong name.

22. Please just share with your sister. You aren’t even playing with that doll.

23. We just put on this Disney movie; maybe we could watch at least 10 minutes.

24. Please stop running; I don’t want you to get hurt.

25. Don’t make me call mommy and daddy.


26. Oh yes, I’m sure mommy said you could have as many cookies as you wanted.

27. Is it nap time yet? Oh right, you don’t take naps.

28. Don’t touch me with your paint-covered hands.


29. I didn’t have an iPad when I was your age.

30. You’re lucky you’re cute.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

WP content

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
