My last day working for Karissa! And it was a lovely one. Sweet Kiera, who just turned five, has brought me much joy. She is so very smart and thoughtful and honest. We had a nice time in the woods exploring and talking, and when I made her lunch arranged to look like a ship in a sea she was so delighted. Her parents interact with her as a smart, capable, engaging little human, speaking to her respectably and honestly and not in baby-talk, and it shows – and it’s made it so easy for me to get along with her, because I don’t really know how to act “kiddy.” We are simply peers of sorts – I with some more years and wisdom and experience, and with some authority placed on me, but both of us with fully capable minds and thoughts and imaginations. So yeah, I very much enjoyed my time with her today. 🙂
