Just started my dayhome this week - first day was Tuesday. At that point just had 1 p/t dcg - 10 months old. She was an absolute dream both days she was here. Did not stop smiling. Ate great, napped great. Mom is wonderful and was here for drop off and pick up exactly when she said she would be.

Had a 2 1/2 y/o sign on to start Monday. He came for an hour yesterday and is such a sweet boy. Played really well by himself. Didn't get upset at all when Mom left. Very polite. Mom dropped off and picked up within a few minutes of when she said she would.

Have a 14 month old girl for her first day today. Dad dropped her off exactly when he was supposed to. She has not shed a tear yet. Ate great, and went down for a nap with not so much as a whimper.

Now I'm just waiting for my luck to run out. This has been a dream job so far - any chance I'll be saying the same thing a week from now? I assume most kids aren't this easy? I'm afraid to take on another one - don't want to ruin a good thing!

Also, my own kids are older (15, 12 and 8) and are LOVING having babies around. They are a huge help before and after school. They walk in the door and the first thing they say - "Where's the baby??". So cute!! I'm sure that will change though, but I've sure enjoyed my first week!

Hope you all have had a great week too!
