My OWN babysitting job! (and it's not for my siblings)

Emma here! Sorry I haven't blogged for awhile. I've been busy. Okay, so this time, I'll be telling you about my babysitting job. I babysit for the Rebers, a family in my church. They have three sweet girls: Ella 4 yrs, Kayla 3 yrs, Dessie 9, 10, or 11 months(I can't keep track)! I babysit every Thursday and this is usally how it goes: I get there at 3:30pm and go upstairs to watch the kids while their mom teaches piano lessons. Sis. Reber always puts Dessie down for her nap right before I come. When I get upstairs, Ella and Kayla are watching T.V. After their favorite show, 'Martha speaks', we like to play games such as Candy Land, Bingo, the Oreo game, and the My Little Pony Matching game. After that, it's about 4:30 and the girls are hungry, so I go and get them a snack along with some milk in their favorite sippy-cups. Then we play some more games. At around 5:30, Dessie wakes up. I take her out of her crib and put her down on her blanket with some toys. Then at 6:00, it's time for her bottle. She almost always drinks every last drop of her formula. Now it's 6:15 and the girls are watching Babar. At 6:30 Sis.Reber comes upstairs and takes the girls. It's time for me to go, and Sis.Reber pays me every other Thursday. I get four dollars an hour, which equals up to twelve dollars a day. I am so lucky I have this babysitting job! Have a super spring break!
