Monday;; Day 28! Now today, was an interesting day! Despite the luxuries I have been enjoying while I have been here in Seville, I have also had some difficulties with the nannying with what to do when Jaime yells or Patricia and Jaime argue or don't want to do their homework etc. They have more or less been running rings around me; but not in a nasty way or anything...just getting whatever they want whenever they want it really. They are good children, don't get...

Sunday;; Day 27! This is practically what my day looked like...(check the blog photo!)...my first day off! Bliss! I take advantage of it completely and spend the whole afternoon lounging by the pool, swimming and writing in my journal...this day is also a good time for me to reflect and see what adjustments I can make for the coming week.

It is such a beautiful area they have built here and it truly feels like I have stepped into a tourists haven.

Wednesday;; Day 23. Good morning in Spain...well, kind of! I didn't wake up until 11am and the children don't wake up until 11.30am lol! It's just so hot! Apparently the kids sleep until about this time every day throughout the holidays though and go to bed about midnight! Today is my first day with the kids with both parents at work.
