Job Interview

So I had a job interview last night. I think it went very well and am praying that I will get this job. They're interviewing one other person and calling my references today and will let me know by tomorrow. I'll start by Sunday if I get hired. This is like my dream job. This is seriously the nanny job I always dreamed of...the one I didn't think actually existed. I feel like this job was made for me so I really, really hope I get it. It's a live-in nanny job for 5 month old boy/girl twins. I immediately felt super comfortable and at ease with this family...not nervous at all like I usually get. The little girl was fussing and has had a fever. They immediately handed her over to me to see how I would do with her. I also got the little boy while he was fussing because he was tired. They allowed me to hold him while they walked out of the room for a few minutes to say goodnight to their older daughter, Zoe. They wanted to make sure I could handle it without them there and that they could trust me. If I get this job, I'll be paid $350-400/week with taxes taken out. I'd have my own room and bathroom. They have 2 houses right now. One in La Crescenta and one in Carpinteria. May 1st, they're moving into 1 home in Camarillo. I'm so excited about this job and really hoping it works out!!

I HATE Cancer!!!

So I just found out that my friend's mom, Diane, was diagnosed with chronic leukemia. This makes me so sad. This isn't supposed to happen. Her husband, Mike, is one of the pastor's at my church I used to go to when I lived with my dad. Their oldest daughter, Tiffany, was a close friend of mine and mentor when I was younger, in high school. Their youngest daughter, Taylor, was on my dad's soccer team years ago, which is how we first got to know them. This shouldn't have happened to her, wasn't supposed to happen to her. Diane and their whole family was always really active. She was healthy. Cancer really doesn't discriminate. You just never know who it will strike. Her white blood cells are coming in as blasts, which means she has a really high white blood cell count. This is not good news. She had a bone marrow biopsy a few days ago. I don't know what the results were yet. Please be praying for the Jonker family.
