First days

Well a quick update becuase that is really all I have. The twins are napping and J is daycare. My days right now seem to be much the same. Today was much more chaotic then yesterday. There was a lot more screaming kids. The twins are phrasing out of first nap time and so when I tried to put them to bed they failed and defeated me and so they got some magic cheerios. For who ever doesnt know kids, apparently they are magic. Give a screaming kid a few cheerios, its as is you are the most amazing thing on this planet. Milk and toys doe the same trick but only half the time.
I got a tour of Valleyfeild, which is what they call the place I am staying its really Salaberry-deValleyfeild but thats a mouth full. And have been treated pretty good, I have a bedroom in the basement with bed and dressers with enough room for all my clothes. It`s pretty comfortable. The house is nice and homey and the parents are wonderful. They actually speakl english to each other and me and then french to their children so its a lot of back and forth but I can still be part of the conversation. The twins don`t quite speak yet but J speaks in full sentences and only french which is funny becuase all day A and S speak english but he only understands french. So I get to practice my frnch with a two year old. Which is fun.
I have also realized that even through my day is 8-4 my day really go longer then that. Which is fine by me becuase I get 2 hours of downtime anyway when they get naps. If I decided to not hang out with them then I am alone. So right now it`s just better to be with the family instead of hiding myself away. I am not forced to at all I cna go or do whatever when I am done. Its just fun to play or what ever. Once I get a little more comfortable I might go out and explore. But I feel still like I am getting my balance in life here.
So in a day I feed the kids at 8 and dress myself
milk Playtime and walks
naptime diaperchange
playtime lunch
nap
done. Well for me at least. My days are pretty uneventful but very busy yesterday by naptime both me and Sara had naps and then I went to bed at like 10. If I sleep well and have coffee in the morning I seem to be fine for the rest of the day.
The next few weekends are crazy for them. I dont work on the weekends but since I dont have much else to do. I am going to go with them to cornwall, toronto and Quebec city.
Anywho thats it for now, love ya and keep praying for strentgh and well being.

Night before the Grand Adventure!

So last year today I arrived in England. This seems to be a popular facebook statement, give or take a few words. It's an annoying phase to say the least but there is no other way to put it. It is the truth of the matter and among 170 students who all had an amazing life changing experience, it's kinda on your mind. A year ago my life began to change. But really lets think about it, our lives have been changing since we were born. Not only has our body changed but our characters have changed and so last year was a crazy year. One that I will never forget. I had wrote on the last blog I was closing one chapter and opening another. Once again that is what I will be doing, however the chapters are actually still open to be read but just not rewritten. I don't think I would rewrite them even if they were in pencil. Well a little rant. Anywho I lost my train of thought....
Well my facebook status would look a little different, "A year ago I arrived at a castle with the unknown infront of me and wack load of weird faces, But before long it became the most wonderful time of my life and so this year I will not be going to England but rather I will be embarking on another life changing experience in Quebec as a Nanny!!!!" Go me! Well I hope I can do it because the ticket is bought and the seat is reserved. The bags are packed the people are notified and I have said my final goodbyes. There is no turning back now, so wish me luck and a whole lot of patience....
I am excited don't get me wrong but still I am freaked out, FREAKED out but EXCITED. Two very different but very big emotions.
I must say as well I did have one of the best past weeks in a long time. It was full of visiting with different people. Walking around Van City, Sleepovers+Shopping, Trips to PG+Sister+Dogs, Dinners and more food and more food, Indian food/Girls night out with laughter and smiles. I saw friends who have meant the world to me. These are the people who have had an impact on my life, they have been there through a lot and they will be there when I return. As one of them said, we made it through one year I am sure we can do another. And so I will miss them dearly but I know they will never be too far away (especially with this thing called technology).
Good bye for now

Pre leaving

It's only a matter of days before I head out once again. On a journey that is both exciting and yet so scary at the same time. I guess not really scary but rather nerve wracking. It has almost been ago that I left to make my way over to England, before I left I had no clue what I was doing. I thought many time of how I should stay and much like last time my brain is saying I am crazy. Of course not because I didn't want to go but rather leaving what I am comfortable with. I didn't want to leave my friends and family. This year seems harder one because my friends are staying home and last year they left with me. Also this year is going to be so much harder to make friends when I leave. I am up for the challenge!! This next year will be full of them.

I have one last weekend home full of craziness and really not a clue what I have left to do. I do still have to pack but that can wait till Monday and then I must leave Tuesday.
