Babysitting Research Paper

This past summer I spent my time babysitting, trying to make money to save up for my truck, because this winter I wanted to rebuild my truck engine. I babysat 2 little girls named: Addison and Alivia, Addison is 7 and Alivia is 4. All summer we enjoyed making crafts, playing outside, running through the sprinkler, making sand castles, playing with barbies, practicing school work, and cooking. The summer was filled with smiles and happiness with these two little girls. I babysat 11 hours a day from 6am to 5pm. I never got upset with the girls we always just got along great and had a lot of fun. One thing I really enjoyed was them telling me stories about what they have done as a kid. It really made me think of all my past memories when I …show more content…
The girls I babysat were so upset when I didn’t get them something they really wanted but weren't aloud to have. Now the little things you cannot let bother you, if you let the little things bother you, you will never be happy, being happy is the key to life. Something's these girls explained to me were so detailed and so wordy it just gave me such a good feeling because I remember doing all the things they do as a kid, I remember the going to bed early waiting on Santa to come, or the Easter Bunny to come. Just so many little things make you really miss the past as a kid. Growing up gets harder and harder every year.
The feelings these memories gave me was a sad/happiness, I’m glad I grew out of the young bratty ness but I miss playing outside on swing sets and miss these memories I made as a kid. As you get older so many things change in life, when you get older, so many young kids look up to you, and when them young kids tell you what they do as a kid and it's makes you feel so good because you can relate to them that you did the same thing as a kid or close to the same thing! You will never forget the great memories you have, some way or another, they will come back around to

    Thank you so much! Many of us have heard of foster homes, but most of us don't know that you can get put in a worst home. A foster home is full of many kids that are in need for a new and better home. Sometimes the foster home has no other choice but to close down, and then all the kids that were in it have to be put in random homes. On the other hand, many negative things could happen at his current home also, but through what does happen at his old home, he will have his family to support him all the way through it.…

    There was a crisp and refreshing wind that swirled around in the air, creating a harmony in motion with the lakes bountiful waves. It was a startling summer morning in the West Virginia mountains as everything was so clear, picturesque and vibrant. The blue sky shone a bright blue, the yellow sun radiated a bright yellow, and the green lake shimmered exuberantly. Interrupting this peaceful scene were several loud splashes as young campers dove one after another erupting in excitement (and possibly an ounce of initial shock at the lakes contrast in coolness with the other elements). We; the divers, were already bursting at the seams of delight from the anticipation built canoeing up to this spot, considerably far from the shore of the lake.…

    Having another child to save child seems like a wonderful idea. That is because this saves the first child. The part that many people don’t think about is whether or that child wants to be subjected to the taking of bone marrow and more invasive procedures. The child might not want to have these procedures which might be selfish but that doesn’t mean that child shouldn’t have the right to choose to help or not. "When you have a little child who's going to be a donor of an organ like bone marrow, you have a sense that the child is being created for that purpose and really doesn't participate in that choice," said Alexander Capron, professor of law and medicine at the University of Southern California.…

In addition to our cozy neighborhood we have a very spacious backyard which was perfect for me to run around in when I was little. My parents had a playground built for me and even bought me a bouncey house the fill up the yard.…
