The Notebook//Joshler

January 26

today, i had my first official day at my new 'job.'

i would arrive at 9:00.

at 10:00 i would help abigail with her reading.

she said i was the best teacher she'd ever had.

at 11:00 we'd do math.

at 12:00, i'd make lunch for us.

around 12:30, we would play whatever abi was in the mood for.

at 1:00, abi would take a nap while i did the dishes.

at 2:00, i'd help abi with her science.

at 3:00, i'd help her with anything she didn't understand from earlier.

and around 3:30, we'd do whatever we wanted for the rest of the day.

she decided she just wanted to sit in my lap while we watched disney movies.

that was fine by me.

at 5:30, laura came home. she gasped at how spotless the house was, and her jaw dropped as she saw all of abigail's schoolwork had been done.

"tyler! you really got her to do all this?" she asked amazedly as she flipped through the pages.

"yes ma'am," i said.

abigail then informed her that i am 'the best teacher ever.'

and now, i'm getting paid $25 an hour for all my hard work and success with teaching abigail.

i'd eat lunch with abigail and the duns would always insist i stay for dinner.

so now, i had two full meals a day.

i was getting paid $200 a day for spending time with the sweetest little girl ever.

and i got to give my boyfriend a welcome home kiss every day.

my life is...

it's wonderful.

my life is starting to really be wonderful.
