Every Tuesday night, that's what I did. Babysit. I got to do so for the Single Moms bible study at our church, with a good friend. Every Tuesday night we would choose a kids movie (which we would always enjoy more than the kids), play with trains, build forts, play with cars, color, and watch the kids too. Did I mention we got paid to do so? Yeah, it was a pretty sweet setup. I also got some little boyfriends out of the deal. That's what my dad always called them at least. I don't know how many years I did this, but there have been three little boys during that time that really connected with me. The first one was super shy and wouldn't be happy with anyone else.

Another wonderful thing that we got to do was play dress-up. Before the kids came, or after they had all left, we would see if we could squeeze into the toddler costumes they had in the room that we babysat in.

Keep in mind, these are both one pieces. Yeah. Mad skillz up in here. Gotta love babysitting.
