Today I am babysitting two little boys that belong to my friend Jessica Hines. They are so cute and they are getting along with my kids so well. I love being able to help out my friends! Earlier this week I also had to babysit some little girls that belong to another friend of mine. It was so much fun when I had to babysit for Alisha! The girls were so cute and very polite. Ethan enjoyed himself just as much because he had a kid that was his age! They played and played in my livingroom until they were a little tired. Then we decided to lay down and watch a movie. They were so well behaved and I was even able to rest a bit!
You might think I am crazy but I love babysitting! Especially when the kids are well behaved and they get along so well with my kids!!! Today we have watched a movie and at the moment the kids are playing in the basement where all the toys are at. In a bit we will be going outside to play. That way the kids could use some of there energy!!!
This is my day.... And I love it!!!

Ten Months Later and I am Still Happy in Germany!!
It's been about 10 months that we moved to Germany. We have adapted very well here in this new Country of ours. The kids enjoy going to school everyday. Ethan and I entertain each other everyday when the kids are in school.
Today is a Saturday and Chris is at work so it's just me and the kids and house cleaning to do. I try taking some special time with my kids, even if it's 10 minutes It's been 2 months since I had my foot surgery and I am slowly but surely getting back into things. My foot isn't 100%. It still hurts and when I do a lot of walking or standing then my foot get's swollen and it hurts a whole lot.
When I first arrived in Germany I looked for ways to meet new people and I found this great Organisation named RESA! I went to one of there activities and I just new that I wanted to join! So I went to there monthly social and joined. I have met the most unselfesh women here. They do such great things for people that are less fortunate and I wanted to be a part of that! So I have been trying to help as much as I can. Recently I volunteered to make a salad and take rolls to the Fisher House. The Fisher House is a house that is available to the family of wounded soldiers that are in the hospital. I had to make enough salad and take rolls for 30 people. Well when I took everything to them and left the house I just felt this high!! I was so happy to have made someones day, acctually 30 peoples day!! That is a big deal (at least for me)!! I was so happy riding back home! This is the kind of stuff I am doing these days and I am proud of doing them. I have also been given the chance to be Co-Chair of Historian. Basically I help out Jessica Hines who is the Chair of Historian with everything she needs help with. I am happy to be a part of something that makes such a big difference in the world!!
This is my life in Germany and I wouldn't change anything...
