What to do on the one day you have a caretaker other than your mother all day as she watches lacrosse in Manhattan Beach



Sleep, of course, and have no seizures or need to walk around outside or be otherwise distracted and entertained. Make sure that your saintly caretaker has nothing to do for the majority of the day but take adorable photos of you and send them to your mother while she sits in Manhattan Beach watching her teenager play lacrosse and fields her other teenager's incessant questions and requests for food.

  4. I know what you mean. Why can't that happen for you too sometimes. I know your caretaker is wonderful and it's nice for her to have an easy day. But shouldn't you get this kind of day too?

  5. Like the way babies always sleep for the grandparents and then they say, I don't know what you're complaining about or why you're so tired, she does nothing but sleep all day.

  7. That's comforting to know, but funny too that sometimes our kids save up all the raucous for US, right? CB likes to be really feisty at my mother-in-laws... breaking shit all the time. She gets into her dirty diaper with our one babysitter. I suppose she treats them just like family :)
