Job #2

I got a second job! I will be babysitting two little French kids, ages 4 and 10. Tomorrow, I will meet the family and the kids. Me and another assistant posted some signs in the teachers lounge and one of the professors got back to me. I wonder how much I should charge, considering the fact I have NO money....

I'm glad I got this job because I will be around French children who can probably talk slowly and teach me a child's vocabulary. Then I can take that and teach it to my little sister, Madeleine! Madeleine already knows some french words, like "du lait," "de l'eau," "jus d'orange," "du pain," "s'il vous plait" and "mademoiselle." You know, five basic phrases to survive. She has an interest in French at such a tender young age and it's completely forced upon by me self-motivated. So proud of that little rascal.
