'tis the Season

'Tis the season for babysitters.

We have had/will have need for a babysitter 6 times this months. Too many parties or special events are scheduled in which children are asked to stay home.

While it is always nice to have a little break (especially if it means I don't have to cook dinner!), December is absolutely the worst time to try to pay a babysitter - it would add up to over $100!
I am grateful for good friends and neighbors that have helped soften that blow by trading babysitting and favors. Its nice to know I can count on people to take good care of my children while I am away.
