Now booking babysitting gigs for 2019

Dad, Will, Ellie and her squirrel took a walk to the park this morning. Ellie brought her buggy -- you can tell it was serious business.
She stopped to ensure the squirrel's comfort every few steps. You won't find service like that even if you buy a (plane) ticket these days!
Once they arrived at the park, Ellie sacrificed a prime swinging opp to push the squirrel.
It had its chance in the big kid, er, squirrel swing, too. But only under her watchful eye and steady hands.
Soon it was time to head home for lunch. Will obviously was hungrier. ;)
Can you even stand the squirrel under the covers?
She's good -- she's really good! -- but you'll have to get in line if you need a babysitter. You'd probably prefer she be 13, anyway. (Let's not talk about how old I'll be by then!)
