Complete #63 - Be there for a baby's first step


From August 2001 to August 2002 I was an au pair for a family in Geneva, Switzerland. I lived in the home and helped take care of 3 boys ages 8 years, 6 years and 8 months. I spent most of my time with the baby so I was there for his first steps. It was mid-Februray, just a few days before my birthday and I was in the mountains skiing with the family for a week. It was so much fun to be there and see his first steps.
