Miss Angelique is Trey's primary sitter during the week. She's an in-home provider (in her home, not ours) and has two little ones of her own. One little girl who in school and a little boy who stays home during the day. Miss Diana, who lives with Angelique, has also been a big part of Trey's life even when he was with his previous sitter. We kind of get two for the price of one, since Diana pitches in and helps Angelique a lot of the days. Miss Diana has two kids as well, a little girl who goes to school and a little boy who stays home. Angelique watches two other little boys full-time which basically makes it a house full of boys for the most part.
Angelique has always been so great with the kiddos doing fun projects and learning activities during the day. For example, one week was butterfly week. All the kids made their own caterpillars which they fed all week. At the end of the week, the caterpillars went into their "cocoons" and the following week came out as beautiful butterflies that they got to take home. She also tries to get them out of the house whenever they can. They have gone to trips to the Children's Museum, the Wildlife Museum, and even lunches to Peter Pipers. A couple of weeks ago, she even took them up to Sabino Canyon to cool off in the rivers.
I'm so lucky to have both Angelique and Diana care for Trey. They love him so much and you can really tell he loves them, too. Since I can't stay at home full-time with Trey at this point in my life, I know that this really is the next best thing for him. Thanks so much...we love you!
