Nanny Fantasy and Grandma Gone Bad

Dear Dylan,
As I write to you, I'm trying to upload a video I took of you last night while you were sleeping. I was holding you and dancing in a circle to John Lennon (Power to the People) YOur dad was dancing with Noah. It was a memorable moment. I couldn't believe how lucky I was to be holding you and to have your dad, NOah, Uncle Joe and your mom all together for some Saturday night baby fun. the video clip is hilarious- a close up of your face with the background spinning around behind you as I turn (your kitchen) You have a bit of a squished nose and I'm now pretty sure I can tell you two apart. The red spot on your forehead helps. Uncle Joe and to pay $2 since he guessed wrong twice. (two bucks for the duck)
Uncle Joe and I brought over Chinese food so we could be tehre for the supper hours and evening-hell time apparently but you wre both quite good. Especially after we wore you out at Daddy's Disco!

Dear Noah,
Last night, your mom asked us if we had a favorite baby!??! What kind of question is that?!!>? Of course not!! I said, "Do YOU?" then she told us she was asking because she was trying to decide which one of you she would have us be godparents to. It sounds like she may be going with you since your Aunt Kim (L) was saying that Dylan was her favorite while in the womb still. (figure that one out) and I'M the crazy aunt?? so she will probably be godmother to Dylan and Uncle Don the godfather. Your 3rd Aunt Kim (assuming she becomes your aunt- we are waiting to see if there is an engagement announcement at Christmas) will just have to relish in the glory of being married to a godfather. We saw her the night before last which was the anniversary date of Grandma's death. (two years) We got together at your house to spend the day with you and your dad. (and Dylan-he didn't have much choice-ha ha) Speaking of hostages, we watched the news coverage of a hostage situation in Rochester, NH where you Grandpa K and Chris live. Some looney tune went into Hillary Clinton's campaign office with road flares strapped to himself with duct tape and demanded to see Hillary. (she was in Virginia) They had the SWAT team there for six hours outside, while waiting for the guy to finally surrender. We half expected to see Grandpa show up saying he had to get through to go clean the bank!
Uncle Don left for awhile to pick up Kim (T) at the Manchester airport and then came back with her afterwards. Uncle Joe was at home alone with the dogs and stuck eating my leftover macaroni and cheese (poor guy!) but he had to work that day and I played hookey- that's why I was able to go.
Last night I met Nicky's dad too who came to pick up Nick. He looks just like him! He seemed very nice and I'm sure you'll both like him.
We are expecting our first winter storm tonight and I'm hoping for no school tomorrow. UGH- speaking of which, my plan is to teach for two more years to get 30 in and retire early with a 42% pension, but I'm grappling with thoughts of a leave of absence so I can take care of you guys one or two days a week while your mom works. She's going back to work in January and sending you guys to a home daycare on Thursday and your dad is rearranging his schedule to be home on Friday and Saturday.
I would love the opportunity to take care of you!!! It's a hard call to make since it's mid year- Uncle Joe would probably poop his pants, as would the principal trying to hire a Spanish teacher. Its' too bad I couldn't get someone to job share with me. I can't believe your dam maternal grandmother is being such an asshole! Originally she volunteered to do Thursdays and now her idea of being a grandmother to you both is sending Halloween cards and Thanksgiving cards. Sigh.....
I'm going to do some serious thinking about this nanny fantasy. I need to get some outside perspective and see where it leads me!
Love you both,
Auntie Kim
