Like somethin' is brewin' and 'bout to begin.

After writing what they thought the perfect nanny would consist of :
cheery disposition
Rosy cheeks, no warts!
Play games, all sort

You must be kind, you must be witty
Very sweet and fairly pretty
Take us on outings, give us treats
Sing songs, bring sweets

Never be cross or cruel
Never give us castor oil or gruel
Love us as a son and daughter
And never smell of barley water


And making deals:
If you won't scold and dominate us
We will never give you cause to hate us
We won't hide your spectacles
So you can't see
Put toads in your bed
Or pepper in your tea

Jane and Micheal stood at their bedroom window, wondering what had gone horribly wrong. What were all of these old, warty, mean looking nannies doing at their home. Not one of them had rosy cheeks or looked kind and pretty.

Then the wind began to blow!

One by one the ugly mean looking nannies where blown away. There in the distance somehow magically floating down from the sky was a beautiful nanny. She was everything they could have imagined. Rosy cheeks and all!

Mary Poppins, is one of my most favorite movies. At this point in my life I feel like Jane and Micheal. I asked for one thing and got something completely different. I have made deals and begged to be heard. At the point of thinking there is no hope, the wind is picking up, all the ugly is flying away. I can see clearly in the distance something beautiful and wonderful on the horizon.

I love the winds of change!!
