I am SO pleased to report that after eight interviews and countless phone calls/emails this week, I think I have found a nanny! I see sanity in my near future, hallelujah. I feel like I should do a rain dance or something.

Seven girls came by yesterday for interviews, and it was altogether interesting and educational. Has it really been that long since I was a college student? Was I ever actually that young? I asked whether one of the girls had any questions about the job or our family. She wanted to know, are we religious? I replied that I am half-Christian and half-Jewish, so we celebrate pretty much all of the holidays. Oh! she said. Jews are really smart, huh!?

:) She was very sweet, but she wasn't the nanny I picked.
