The most important part about being a nanny...

Some of my favorite moments with my own kids was when they were fairly young several of my neighbors, some teachers, and their friends parents told me that my sons are so respectful with excellent manners.. also I recall when my boys were getting older and were teenagers that we went out to eat at a Panda Express and just after ordering our food both of my sons thanked me for their meals.. a worker made a comment and thought it was so sweet and thoughtful absolutely amazing that my sons were so grateful.. she mentioned that she had never experienced or seen such a wonderful gesture from anyone else before then.. when I look back and think of those moments I am a very happy and proud mother and appreciate the kindness they were taught and respect to show to others and even including their own family.. to this day my two sons stick up for others in a righteous manner and are always willing to give a helping hand they are so selfless that they will give the shirt off their back to anyone.
