Moving on Up


 Logan has a work truck, but two weeks ago his Company provided him a company vehicle.  It’s really nice like a raise.  He works really hard.  Astrid and Logan are kids that make one proud.

And…Sigrid is excited.  She has a summer job.  She will sit two young boys in their home.  The boys are 8 and 5.  Their mother is an accountant I think.  The work is Monday through Thursday and $75 a day.  Some weeks not as many days, but she said if she worked all week she’d make $300.00.  This will be her first job.  First Astrid babysat these boys and then Ingrid did it after school.  Sigrid said the boys’ Mom is structured.  She leaves a list and time table for what they can do.  The three neighbor grands are all growing up.  


Ingrid is doing well, too.  She quit the emergency room job because it was an all nighter.  She got a job at a Day Care.  She worked first from 2 to 6 so she could go to her college classes.  After the semester ended, they let her work more.  Then she was promoted to lead teacher to a room of 5 year olds.  Her children have disabilities.  She also got a raise.  

Astrid is 21, Ingrid 19, and Sigrid is 16.  It’s hard for me to absorb it.  They’ll growing up.  Clayton is 12, Greta 10, and Ada is 2.  They are my chapter 2.

Yes, they grow up fast. Enjoy them while you can. My grandchildren are in their late thirties and early forties. I am now working on my greats!
