I had a rough morning, but only because I slept for a total of 14 hours yesterday! I woke up at 0900 and my eyes could not work! They hurt so bad for so long, but they are much better now. I didn't do much this morning other than read and get a little more comfortable. The real fun started happening after Sophia got home from school at about 1200 and she had fallen and hurt herself (a gash on her foot that will make for a nice scab and a cut lip). After some love, care, and a few bandages she wanted to take Chari (the dog) and me down to the creek just down the road. I loved walking down there because it was so beautiful!! Close streets and really cool houses. The water was cold but it felt great otherwise!

(Sabine said that if she "washes in the creek, she doesn't know" who can blame a 7-year-old who doesn't like baths? I know I can't.)
After we got back we had lunch and then the kids went to play with some friends and Sabine and I went out to the store to try to find an adapter for my computer, which is slowly dying, and had no luck, then we went to Aldi! A name that I know!!!!HA! Anywho, I got to drive! There were many fords and about 5 round-abouts. Other than that and some signs driving was only a little scary. Ha ha. I only took one wrong road though, so I could that as a plus!
(Das ist Miene Auto! It's a Citrön C5, if that means anything to anyone other than Aaron.)
After getting back home I practiced (ha!) and then got to talk to my parents after dinner. And thus ends my first adventurous day as an au pair!!! One small step for everyone and one giant leap for me. (That's how it goes right?)
Bis bald
P.S.- Lukas and Sophia attacked me with a really big "Guten Acht!"
