FFF - Bloopers
It's been awhile since I have posted a Favorite Foto Friday. This week Sarah chose the theme bloopers. I don't know if the picture below is actually a "blooper" but it is one I find amusing. I titled it, "Johanna has a ways to go before she grows into Mommy's shoes or other items."

Living in a Daycare
Johanna loves living in a daycare home. There are lots of toys to play with and lots of kids. I do however, think her favorite time is evening when all the kids go home and she has Mommy and Grandma to herself.
This is from today's local newspaper.

Johanna was TAGGED!!
Johanna was tagged by three blog buddies.
She has to tell 10 things about herself and our daycare friends are going to help.
1. My birth name is Ana Lucia but Mommy is changing my name to Johanna Faith Lucia.
2. I have 2 bottom teeth and am getting 2 on top. I am not fussy about them at all.
3. I wet through my p.j.'s every night unless Mommy changes me by 3:00 a.m. or so.
4. I am going to my first concert next Tuesday night. It is Desperation Band. They are from New Life Church in Colorado Springs. My mommy loves their song "Counting on God."
5. I HATE baby food and baby cereal. Mommy sneaks it in "real" food so I can get the vitamins I need.
6. I love men because I was really close to my foster father. My Grandma says Mommy needs to find me a "Papa" but Mommy says "No way."
7. I have a pink bedroom, pink stroller, pink highchair and pink car seat. My mommy must like pink.
8. I can sort of roll over but still have a lot of trouble. I'll work on it.
9. I pulled up to my knees yesterday. Mommy did get a picture of my miraculous feat.
10. I sleep all night and have from the first night Mommy had me. Mommy doesn't sleep all night though.

Today Johanna Faith is 8 months old. This is her last monthly birthday away from home and me.
Happy 8 months my sweet baby girl. I love you so much and I am finally coming to get you. Grandma and I will see you tomorrow. I am praying you have a smooth transition.

See you tomorrow,
Mommy

The Job I Applied For
POSITION :
Mom, Mommy, Mama, Ma
JOB DESCRIPTION :
Long term, team players needed, for challenging permanent work in an, often chaotic environment. Candidates must possess excellent communication and organizational skills and be willing to w ork variable hours, which will include evenings and weekends and frequent 24 hour shifts on call.
Some overnight travel required, including trips to primitive camping sites on rainy weekends and endless sports tournaments in far away cities! Travel expenses not reimbursed. Extensive courier duties also required.
RESPONSIBILITIES :
The rest of your life. Must be willing to be hated, at least temporarily, until someone needs $5 . Must be willing to bite tongue repeatedly. Also, must possess the physical stamina of a pack mule and be able to go from zero to 60 mph in three seconds flat in case, this time, the screams from the backyard are not someone just crying wolf.
Must be willing to face stimulating technical challenges, such as small gadget repair, mysteriously sluggish toilets and stuck zippers.
Must screen phone calls, maintain calendars and coordinate production of multiple homework projects.
Must have ability to plan and organize social gatherings for clients of all ages and mental outlooks.
Must be willing to be indispensable one minute, and an embarrassment the next.
Must handle assembly and product safety testing of a half million cheap, plastic toys, and battery operated devices.
Must always hope for the best but be prepared for the worst.
Must assume final, complete accountability for the quality of the end product.
Responsibilities also include floor maintenance and janitorial work throughout the facility.
POSSIBILITY FOR ADVANCEMENT & PROMOTION :
None.
Your job is to remain in the same position for years, without complaining, constantly retraining and updating your skills, so that those in your charge can ultimately surpass you.
PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE :
None required unfortunately.
On-the-job training offered on a continually exhausting basis.
WAGES AND COMPENSATION :
Get this! You pay them!
Offering frequent raises and bonuses.
A balloon payment is due when they turn 18 because of the assumption that
college will help them become financially independent.
When you die, you give them whatever is left.
The oddest thing about this reverse-salary scheme is that you actually enjoy
it and wish you could only do more.
BENEFITS :
While no health or dental insurance, no pension, no tuition reimbursement, no paid holidays and no stock options are offered; this job supplies limitless opportunities for personal growth, unconditional love, and free hugs and kisses for life if you play your cards right.
Mom, Mommy, Mama, Ma

One Month Old
Today my Johanna Faith is one month old. Oh, how I wish I could hold her and love on her. I wonder how much she has grown. I wonder if she is a good baby. I wonder if she is happy.
Johanna,
Mommy loves you so much.

In My Escape Window
Yesterday there was a baby blue jay in the front yard. Mommy was up in the tree keeping a good eye on him. Today my niece's found three of them in the basement escape window. We put a bowl of bird seed in there and scared them almost to death. I did remove the well-cover. It is great because I can see them from inside so well. I hope they make it. Mommy is still up in the tree and has been in the well at least once, that we know of.
