Alas-- I have lost my live in babysitter. Cole has moved on to greener pastures--well in his mind anyway. He has moved to a basement apartment with friends in Lindon. I'm hoping and praying that he finds the nearest bus stop to travel to a new job which he's still looking for and then receive a paycheck and be able to pay his rent and buy food, toilet paper, soap and deodorant. All this needs to happen in the next several days. I must give him points for just heading out the door with courage and adventure leading the way. I think he had more courage because he was acting on a full stomach and had recently used a fully stocked bathroom.
Good luck I say go get em baby, you can do it!!!! Go see what you can accomplish in this big world. Do come see us on Sunday and we'll feed you dinner and give you your birthday present then get on back out there and make a difference.
Oh yes when you're back on Sunday I do need you to take out the garbage, it's past full and please fix the Christmas lights that have come loose and I need you to help me move some furniture around. Oh and also can you stop by every morning around 8:30 for an hour and watch Jack so I can go running. I just started back up again a week ago and was doing really well. Also, I made some Christmas tree cookies tonight and I'm eating quite a few so please come back and eat them so i won't have to.
Other than that go have a great time starting your new adult life and please clean up after yourself and say please and thank you and don't forget to turn off the stove--I know I taught you better than that.
And to everyone else--if you see a tall skinny with sort of long hair kid acting like an adult please be nice and give him a ride or a buck to buy a hamburger or better yet- A JOB!!!!
And pray for his momma to find another a babysitter and stop eating all the cookies!!!!
