Anyone out there employed a nanny for longer than a year? Please give me some pointers to increase their employment time with me? I must admit I fired one of them. The other passively quit. If she returns next week I will fire her too!
Is the key to longevity to first hire someone who can meet your needs and then secondly, give a performance evaluation to ensure they meet your requirements?

Passport Update
Can you believe it? The Passport Office called me this morning. I have an appointment for Friday at 10am. I am so very extremely unbelievably impressed. I will keep you posted on Friday's appointment.

DJ, on a Jet Plane...
My big son, Dj (17) moved to Texas in Sept. 2011 to finish his last year in High School and is now living with my brother-in-law and his family. It's not easy when a child "moves" out of the house. Essentially, you are voluntarily relinquishing your parental influence on a daily basis to someone else. And while it's hard to not have that daily influence on your child, we are so incredibly fortunate that he is with his uncle and auntie that are superly awesome. But at 17 you have pretty much raised your child and all you can do now is help guide him through this thing called life.
Dj came down for the holidays and we were so excited to have him home. Such good times. My baby son (Aindreas, 19 months) couldn't stop calling out his name the whole time he was here..."DJ! DJ! DJ!" He, my big daugther (D'ante, 14) and my baby daughter (4 1/2) {Yes, we have plenty chirren, lol} certainly loved up on Dj good!! :)
But now he is heading back to Texas today....sighhhh...and since I was a child I've never been good at saying bye...I hate it and I suck at it really. Sometimes I choose to not even be around when someone I love is leaving the island for an extended period of time. I rather a quick hug and kiss and walk away. It saves me from breaking down.
We will skype Dj when he arrives into Texas, and hopefully that will make everyone feel a little better and not the opposite because just a few hours ago he was sitting right next to us. We love you Dj!!! And soon we will be on a jet plane to Texas for your graduation! Yea baby!

Fox Hill National Insurance Board Office
If anyone who lives in the Eastern District of New Providence needs any service from NIB please visit the Fox Hill Office. Can I just tell you that there is a young security guard who is off the chain with his service. He greeted me at the door with one question. "Good afternoon Maam, how can I help you today." Once I told him I was there to apply for a National Insurance Number for my son he directed me to the application form and explained what documents I needed to provide. He even asked for the documents to copy while I completed the form. He said this was in an effort to save time. UNBELIEVABLE! I almost wanted to have an orgasm. I was in and out of that office with National Insurance card for Chase in fifteen minutes.
Apparently you can collect Benefit Cheques from there as well instead of driving to the Baillou Hill Road Office. But I forget as working mothers we love the absolute bliss we get to visit the main NIB office. Don't they have the best parking ever?!

Online Passport Application
Soooooooooooooooooo has anyone tried the Bahamas Government Online Passport Application? I must admit I am pretty impressed the Passport Office is offering this service. After completing the application I am supposed to receive an appointment time within the next 48 hours. The jury is still out as to whether this will actually occur. I will keep everyone posted.
Until the next,
Very Hopeful Tiffany
