To The Kids I Nanny This Summer

I don't know what my life would be like without you girls

To The Kids I Nanny This Summer
McKenzie Brouk

Being a nanny comes with its high points and its low points, but being an important part of a child's life is so rewarding. There are days where I do not want to go to "work", but then I get there and the kids I nanny somehow know how to completely turn my day around.

Dear kiddos,

The school year with you two was fun, but summer will be even better. I have never met two little girls in my life who make me smile, and enjoy my job as much as you girls have. Although there are times where we get on each other toes, crying fits, and back-talk there are so many times where there is just complete laughter, and those are the moments that makes being a nanny truly special. Whenever we play Zingo I seriously get a workout with just how much we laugh, and I would not trade that for the world. Thank you for teaching how to stay calm, and be patient. There are times where I feel my head might explode from the whining, or when you refuse to take a bath or eat, but eventually it happens (sometimes it involves a sucker at the end).

I feel like I have known both of you for much longer than a year, but I guess that is what happens when you spend 4 days a week with someone! I cant believe we will be entering summer schedule which means more time together, probably a few more meltdowns, maybe not liking me at times, but absolutely ten times more fun. I promise to make this summer one to remember with movies, swimming, ice cream dates, going on adventures, and being completely exhausted by the end of the day.

Thank you for being such a huge part of my life, and let's enjoy these last two months have together. Most importantly let's start planning the summer craziness!

Love,

Kenzie

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.
