The new nanny

Flora had to have knee replacement surgery before Christmas and has had a really hard time from it. She is going to have to have further surgery and, though we hate it, we had to find full-time help.

Jesana has come to our rescue. She is full of fun and energy and the boys adore her. Before the end of her first week, they were waiting at the door for her to arrive. They sing, they dance (salsa), they talk in Spanish (or she does, at least). It seems like a perfect fit.

Of course, now Jay and I have to learn Spanish, too, so the boys can't conspire against us.
