My kids.

I got to see my kids (the S's) today! Mrs. S. got called into work early and had to bring the kids with her for a few hours until Mr. S. could pick them up. (They should really consider getting a nanny.) ;)

Anyway, I heard they were in the building so I snuck up behind them in the break/lunch room. "Supernanny!!" Madison cried and flung her arms around my waist. Noah just looked at me, grinning. "You WORK here?" he kept asking. (His whole frame of reference was screwed up. Supernanny was supposed to be at THEIR house, in sweats and a tshirt, not at Mommy's work in dressy clothes, for Pete's sake! It was craziness!)

I hung out with them for a while before going back to work (I snagged one of their fries, telling them that my new job was French Fry Tester. After chewing thoughtfully for a few moments, I pronounced their fries "okay to eat." They just sat there giggling. "You're so funny, Supernanny!!" Luc announced, cracking everybody else up.

Anyway, as no less than 20 people heard them calling me Supernanny, I'm pretty sure that I'll have a new nickname around the office. (Which is a step up from my current one, Tramp. Yup, I was there for about 4 days before I got nailed with that one.)

I really, really miss those kids.

LMAO-- damn they had you pegged! (the ppl you work with that is)
That's awesome that you got to see the kids again. I take it you don't see them much anymore? Maybe they could set up like some kind of visitation or something.

From Tramp to Supernanny. What's next, Supertramp?
