best job ever.

lane is my employer. it has to be the best job ever. i can wear whatever i want, he never speaks up that the sweat pants i'm wearing still have breakfast from the day before on them. i work from 8am-8am, 164hours a week, monday-monday.
i don't have to set an alarm because he'll let me know when i need to get up. no days off, even holidays. and oddly enough, holidays are a day i really wouldn't want off. we can eat breakfast and lunch when we're good and ready. we can go play with friends or stay home and read the same book over and over.
i have job security. he can't fire me. i have never LOVED my employer more. nor have i ever had such a hard job. my employer speaks very little english and is constantly changing demands. i've never felt more failure in a job(when he cries more during the day than when he smiles), never felt more pride in a job(doing things right that we've taught him), and for sure never felt so loved by a job(when he runs to give you a hug and kiss).
i've never wanted to succed at something SO MUCH!
come february, i'll have two employers. never have i worked two jobs. it's going to be a change, a big change, but i'm up for the challenge. two means more diapers, more giggles, more cries, more love, more everything.
i love these jobs.
