I don't have any kids myself, but I'm quite happy to keep an eye on my sisters' kids when they need to do stuff (or offering to do stuff for them like sorting out the bottles, tidying etc). I'm still a bit reluctant to mind the youngest when it's just me because I'm slightly scared of not being able to pick him up/dropping him - although I know it comes with practice - but have looked after the eldest for a couple of hours on my own a few times.
That said they don't expect me to do that stuff, I do it because I want to help them out and also to get to spend time with my nephews."A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge." - Tyrion LannisterMarried my best friend 1st November 2014Loose = the opposite of tight (eg "These trousers feel a little loose")Lose = the opposite of find/gain (eg "I'm going to lose weight this year")0 -
You know there is nothing worse for me then to try to read a post from someone who is trying to sound so intellectual, yet doesnt know the difference between a ' and a ;
Makes a total mockery of their post.
They're next to each other on the keyboard ~ they're just typo's!
