Babysitting Miss Velma Jane today. The opportunity has me quivering with anticipation and what ifs.Shh!

All of the things that could go wrong won’t. Relax and enjoy!

I will conquer their steps and I will conquer the steps.

Sweet memories of other babies I’ve sung to as I cared for them. I love that babies don’t care if you sing well.

Songs I associate with certain little ones. “You are my sunshine”, “Beautiful” and”You’ll be in my heart.”

The connection between baby and caretaker. This baby likes to be held. I can do that.

My MIL used to judge me that I held the babies when they slept. “You could get get so much done” . I was nurturing. Not sorry.

Thank you for the energy. Grateful for this precious time.
