Hi there friends, I wanted to share a piece of my life with everyone on a daily basis. Yesterday, I shared a funny experience I had trying to ask my crush out as my plus one to a wedding.
For today, I took I'll be sharing a letter I wrote to my babysitter on Valentine's Day this year. She absolutely loved it.
Hello Laura
I trust you are well. I would just like to thank you especially. Many thanks for being everything to my family, we love you more than word can express.
I can still remember the feeling of relief when l met you. You were very warm and kind and as a result, we felt comfortable enough to leave our children with you. While leaving them under care of others is not that simple but with the two people, it was different.
Every time we drop off our kids at your place, we never worry about their safety. We know that you provide much more than just looking after them until they sleep. You also listen to their stories and make sure they have fun while ensuring they are safe too. It is such a relief to know that they are being looked after by someone who has genuine feelings for them.
My gratitude cannot be told to you in words. Sometimes children can be handfuls but you effortlessly handle each and every scene. A scraped knee or a tantrum regarding a toy, whatever it may be, you handle them gracefully.
However, it isn’t only about what you do for our kids. It is also about the support which you have extended to us as parents. You are always willing to work with our schedules, give advice when we need and just listen. It means so much to us that someone like you is on our side.
Also, besides all this, we have become family now because of your attitude towards our children. The bond formed between our kids and yourself is priceless. They love who adore and the reason why is clear too. Henceforth, they are an integral part of their lives as well as ours.
So thank you Laura for being the wonderful person that you are today. Thank-you for your kindness, your patience and your passion for life in general. To say how grateful we are that she was placed in our path would not be enough!
With all sincerity,
Your second family.
