The Happy Dance

I've been very perplexed by the possibility we would lose CJ over the summer as "manny" to our two boys. His girlfriend, and our first nanny, is off school in the summer and anxious to get back to her full-time status, which leaves CJ with no hours.

As it turns out, Janel has been offered a job doing wedding coordination for the company her mom works for. Her dilemma? Telling me she wants to try it for the summer, without hurting my feelings. My dilemma? Not acting too happy that CJ will be staying with us for the summer, and subsequently hurting her feelings.

Honestly it isn't that I don't love Janel, I do. She's the best nanny we've ever had. But, CJ is great. He will be so good for my boys. He's athletic, coaches sports and is the all-around best male role model I can imagine my sons having with the exception of their father.

I'm secretly doing a happy dance ...
