Vera Serving Breakfast, originally uploaded by bill kralovec.
Nadia is working with Vera this week to see how she might be as our nanny for this year. Vera is from Belgrade and lives close to our house. She is 51 years old and so far is quite nice, hard-working, and most importantly, the kids like her. She is shown above serving breakfast to our charges. This is very important as Nadia begins work next Monday and we need someone we can trust to be at home with Ocean. We are using Skype to communicate with us at school and we’ll have a computer at home and both Nadia and I have lap tops at school so we will be in contact frequently.
I had a busy day at work yesterday as I am preparing for teacher and student orientation and working through the schedule. Nadia has been a champion being home with the kids all day. Owen loves his new spy watch, it has a special spy night light, message decoder, secret message capsule and shows the time around the world. Oliver got a new spiderman and he carries it around with him everywhere. Ocean is an eating machine and the best out of the three.
