Eeeek...

[elucreh]

My sister's best friend, Elisabeth, is a nanny for a family. Two girls, plus a boy and a girl part-time. Occasionally, when she's been busy, I've babysat for them. Addie, the older one, likes me, and Meg (less than a year old, still) is an absolute doll. The best-behaved baby I've ever worked with, and very very sweet.

Apparently Elisabeth is being fired. And they want ME instead.

I don't know how to react to this. I mean...on the one hand, dream come true, I love those girls, I've always wanted to nanny, they pay very generously and the hours will be flexible.

On the other hand...I love Elisabeth. She's a good friend to me and one of the best things that's ever happened to Jen (my sister). And I'm benefiting from this...and she doesn't even know she's being fired yet. They told JENNY before they told her (how unprofessional is that?)...arrrgh.

I can't quite celebrate because I hate that this is happening because she's losing her job. And it's not like she wouldn't be fired if I didn't take the job, or that she wouldn't be happy for me...it's just hard for ME to be happy for me.
