Picnic With Miss M

When you are a nanny. You love a child with your whole heart, even though it isn't yours. Even though, you can't keep them. Even though at some point, you're not there anymore. This part can be rough. But it helps if that child has truly awesome parents who let you visit and call and ask invasive questions about bedtimes and time-outs and next time you can see their kid.
I count myself pretty terribly lucky that Miss M has two such fantastic parents, and that I get to see in person how she is turning out to be so incredibly great.
Getting to see Little One hanging out with a little girl She could learn a lot of good things from, and getting to hang out with some parents that I always learn a lot from? Icing on the cake. Getting to eat Miss M's Papa's delicious cooking at a picnic? Sheesh. That's like icing on top of icing! I tell you. It doesn't get a whole lot sweeter than that.
