Today our sitter informed me that she is moving. As if that wasn’t bad enough, she is moving to HAWAII!

 

I realize she is the first of many sitters to come and go. But, she was our first. She started with us when Sawyer was 3 months old, when I went back to work. At the time he wasn’t taking a bottle (never did) so she fed him with a syringe. She must have thought we were crazy.

 

I have been thankful. Thankful that Sawyer has had such a wonderful caregiver. Thankful that each time I come home I have a happy, rested baby to hug.

 

Now I must begin the search for a new sitter. Of course whoever the next very capable individual is, they will never be as good as our first. 

 

Sigh.
