I also made the mental note that come next year I will no longer be able to care for this family's children because they will then be old enough to ruin it for everyone else. Love the kids and the family is great to work with...but this is a deal breaker!
Yes, no kidding Lee-Bee.It is hard enough when older kids stop believing and keeping the magic alive for the little ones, but at least for the most part then you can explain to the big kids and have them keep the secret too. This would for sure be a deal breaker for me too. Not because I don't respect the parents choice, but because it is so difficult to keep it from spoiling things for others, especially in this age group.
