The "Grand" Nanny Diaries!!!

So...I have heard of the book, I hear they made a movie about the nanny and her "tattletell" all experiences. Now, I am pretty sure she has never dreamed of working for someone like The Desert Rose but a few weeks ago one such lucky nanny...got to! Toby Jack was coming down to visit us for one whole week and that is a long time for Papa and Zsa Zsa to be on duty. We decided to get a nanny for the week.What a GREAT idea we had! The nanny came every morning at 9am. Toby would get up anywhere between 8 and 9 and come into our bed and play and snuggle with us. When the nanny arrived she would fix him a tasty breakfast. Then came craft time...Toby Jack and the nanny made this puzzle for Zsa Zsa!

Toby was soooooo proud!


The next day...I had a headache so after the nanny arrived in the morning I went back to bed to rest for awhile. 2 hours later I awoke to laughter in the pool so I went out to say hello to Toby and the nanny. However as I walked through the family room to my amazement were Toby's morning crafts...just waiting for me!



Toby put together 2 rather large puzzles...made a bear and horse that move their arms and legs, made a door hanger and a pumpkin!


I think the "Grand" Nanny Diaries could be a best seller!


Your Desert Rose!
