Terrible Toddler
Gosh, it’s been a busy day!
Marissa and I have been working very hard lately, and we spent most of yesterday wrapping baby Alkanet’s birthday presents. Talk about chaos!
One thing I’m rather relieved about, though. My fears about nannies were completely unfounded. Kendal is very responsible, and spends most of her time in the nursery with the baby, rather than eating all the food in the house. In fact, the only gripe I have with her is that she’ll leave meals half prepared on the counter, and has an aversion to washing her dishes. Still, she hasn’t burnt the house down, and the baby gets a lot of attention, even though Marissa and I aren’t home.
And here’s our little precious now! They don’t stay babies for very long, do they? Or is that just me? I suppose it won’t be long now, and she’ll be off to school, bringing friends home, and that sort of thing. In a way, I’m really looking forward to it, but it makes me kind of sad, as well. It doesn’t take long for time to pass between that first ever A+, and High School. Now that worries me! High School means (shudder) boyfriends. Then, of course there’s University, and my baby will leave home for good (gulp). Yes, yes, she’ll probably meet the boy of her dreams, fall in love, etc, etc, but I’m really not looking forward to that. Irrational, I know, but I can’t help it.
One thing I am sure of, though. My Alkanet is going to be a very beautiful girl some day! But then again, I am her father, so I would say that, wouldn’t I?
(Claire, I thought that Sim nannies were incredibly unreliable too, but things seem to be working out pretty good! Katie, I don’t think you’ll guess what I have in mind, at least, I hope not!)
