so, summer has officially begun. i've taken my annual beginning of summer trip: boston this year, new orleans last year, and hopefully new york next summer. i started my nannying job and it's extremely exhausting. the little girls that i'm watching are adorable and quite entertaining, but i run out of energy super quick since i'm used to sleeping late and watching television all day. cayla is leaving for boston (!) next week to visit our family, just copying me with everything she does. hopefully she has a good time and ends up loving the city as much as i do! i'm trying to hide my jealousy that she gets to go there, i would give (almost) anything to go back. but hopefully she'll adore the city like i do and we can move there as soon as she graduates. from high school or college? it depends on how many scholarships she gets and how rich i am by then. cayla is struggling to make a list of things to pack for boston. i just think she needs to pack a few pairs of jeans and then leave room in her suitcase to bring back gifts for me.
there is not much else to write about... i am trying to fix my schedule for next fall so i can take an italian class so i can study abroad in italy spring semester. yes, this is for real.

cheers,
lauren

p.s. we have lots of new things on our list because cayla finally gave me access to her own list. we're almost to 100!
