    Nottellin' - trust me i am looking for a replacement, so are both my advisers from both of the agencies I am with.
    I am still new at this and learning what all the red flags are. The interview was hard because the father was at work and the mother was "speaking through a friend".
    The first time I new there was a red flag was when the father called and asked if I could stay open later. I did tell him no, But my husband got mad, I needed clients. My husband Said to take them on until I could find someone else. So I went against my better judgement and told the father I would stay open the extra 30min. My husband is making dinner for us when he gets home as well as helping with our 2 kids, which helps me out.
    I just wish I would get some phone calls/emails soon.

    The girl was good at quiet time today. I think she just needs some time to get use to being here.

    Pick Up - update- So the dad showed up and I told him that he could either bring 2 or 3 pull-ups each day or a bag full, which ever he wanted, but he HAD TO BRING SOME. He said okay.
    So either he will show up tomorrow without them, and have to go get some or he will bring them for a few days then stop. I know he is not happy. I just hope he stays long enough for me to find a replacement.

    Not looking forward to the drop off. I am going to check her bag before he leaves. there is a 24hr metro right across the street, so he can run over there if he "forgets".

    Good news- my before and after school boy started to day. He is very quiet and gets alone with my 3 yr old boy great. I think he will do well here. now I just have to wait for my 18 month old to start.

    Things might not have started off all that great, but they will get better. And I will learn from my mistakes, trust me I will make lots. L.O.L
