My first regular babysitting job is a senior in high school. I started babysitting her when she was 6 weeks old.
Pish. Mine's out of college.

I wasn't allowed to babysit until I was 13.
Some of the older kids...well, one is a forensic anthropologist. Her older sister is a pediatric dentist. Then there is the married artist whose work hangs on my walls.

I'm just having a lot of how did I get to HERE and I never expected... and this isn't what I expected moments of late. It's cliche and annoying and news from the outside world is just pounding it in a little harder.
