Our dear Kelli

Lots of people ask me about Kelli- who is she? how it's going with her? how did we find her? what's her story? So I thought I would do a post as a tribute to our dear, wonderful, kind, fun, and priceless Kelli.  Kelli came to us after interviewing for a position with our good friend, Sara Stiles (lucky for us, Sara's and Kelli's needs were not a match).  Kelli travels to our house to spend time with Sive Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays while I work, and she also provides evening babysitting services for Sive on evenings when Michael and I treat ourselves to a "date night."  She's fabulous, 24, from Southern California, and a huge music lover.  


Top 4 Reasons that I love Kelli:
4- I come home to our shoes neatly lined up by the door and dishes clean and put away daily.
3- She not only tolerates but also snuggles Tilly while Sive naps.
2- Sive has a special smile and arm reach that is reserved just for her.
1- She sings and "beat-boxes" to Sive.
