My Kids

So, I work with kids and I love it. Absolutely. You say things you would never have imagined saying when working with kids, "can I check your pants?" "let me smell you" "share the wall" "don't touch eyes" "Melmo's broken, no really, he is" and my favorite, "are you nice cup-hands, or mean cup-hands?"

These and many more fill my days. I love when kids come in and smother you with hugs and can't wait to tell you something. I adore these kids. I know you shouldn't have favorites, but they aren't MY kids, so it is ok...right?

This is Miles. He and his twin brother Isaiah are just adorable. They are cuddly and sweet and I love when they come up to me and grab my hand and take me to what they want. I love it.

This my friends, is Ransom. He is so cute, he'll come up to me and try to climb up into my arms, no matter the way I am standing or sitting.

This is Bridger...we call him Bridge. He is so cute and gives great hugs!

This is Josh. Josh's nickname is "Nichole's shadow", because he will follow me no matter where I go. If I go into the bathroom, he will try to come or stand right outside the door until I come out. He is so cute and I love this one to pieces.

And this is Michael. He looks a little mischievous in this picture, it is because he is. We have some of those nesting cups and Michael likes to put them on his hands and call himself "cup-hands". And there is nice cup-hands and mean cup-hands. Mean cup-hands goes to time-out, so Michael will come up to me, with cups and his hands, and say, "I'm nice cup-hands, ok?"

I know, all my favorites are boys...what can I say? The boys love me. If only these boys loved me and we 25 years older...

I just applied for a job at the Ogden Discovery Learning Center... I started out working with kids in high school and I REALLY think I'd like to get back to it!!

Your kids are so cute. I'm jealous. The kids I work with aren't nearly as precious. Ha.

I have worked with kids on and off and took a 4 year break from them and missed every minute of it! I hope you get the job, it would be good for you and lots of fun!
