The most important part about being a nanny...
I had been working for this family for long time. Mom was in the process of starting up her business and of course I was thrilled to come help in any way. Unaware of twin talk at the time, the boys had both been communicating with each other that they were hot. I needed to use the restroom, and as I was washing my hands I heard something. I came out of the restroom to the twins in the ice tray inside the refrigerator. I couldn’t do anything but laugh. Till this day, that has been one of the purest moments witnessed as a nanny.
