Babysitting BLEH!!!!!

Okay it's Sunday and last Friday I went babysitting. NIGHTMARE!!!!! Well, it wasn't that bad I guess.  But see my parents and this other couple in my ward wanted to see this Christmas dance thingy, and I wanted to see it with them because we knew someone in it, but I couldn't because I had to "supervise" (technically it's not babysitting because my sister's older than me) my brother and sister and the other couple's three boys.  Wow it was a LONG night!!!!! Well, the oldest boy, who's twelve, he was fine, I didn't have any problems with him.  But the second oldest, who's about my brother's age, was really a pain and did things just to annoy me and didn't listen to me at ALL.  And then there was the youngest kid. He's three, I think, and we were supposed to put him to bed at 8:00.  Well, guess what.  He refused to go to bed!!!!!!!!!!! The oldest boy and I tried EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING and nothing worked!!!!! And so since we were trying to make him go to bed he started crying and screaming and crying some more and I felt so bad for not getting him to bed!!!!!!! I felt like a total failure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  His parents were okay with it because apparently only his mom can get him to bed usually but still!!!!!!! I felt really bad when they payed me.  It was a LONG three and a half hours. I hate babysitting!!!!

Well, I guess that's not true.  I like kids, really, I do. I just don't like dealing with getting them to bed.  But still, if it wasn't for the money I would never babysit willingly!!!!  Well, maybe I would, I don't know I'm just really bad at babysitting!!!!
