To The Kids I Nanny This Summer
Savannah Sammons

The countdown to the end of school is started and you girls are so excited. Can you believe it we're on our fourth summer together? I sit and think back and think of how little you were and now you're so much more mature. Our times together have provided for many cherished memories, and we've both learned so much in our time together.


You might have learned how to load the dishwasher, make strawberry shortcakes or even plunge a toilet from our time together. But you weren't the only one learning anything; I was learning too. You girls taught me that no matter what happens in life, a good belly laugh can solve anything. Or that words are just words and will not break you. How did I get so lucky to watch such kind-hearted girls?

I really do treasure our days together. Either we spend our days running around town, going on adventures or running from activity to activity laughing and having a great time. Our countless times we visit Target, and you guys have to get the cart you can ride in and explode into a pool of giggles because I can barely push you through the aisles without crashing into anything.

So here's to the smart, beautiful, silly girls I get the pleasure of being their nanny. I really love you girls with every being of my heart and I admire at the great people you are growing up and becoming. Here's to many more days together filled with laughter and adventure!

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.

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.
