I love the series of photos taken at our Babysitter Certification Course. This photo shows Elizabeth holding baby Leah.  The smile on Elizabeth's face is contagious.  It makes me want to smile, too.  I think that offering a babysitter certification course this year at Good Shepherd Catholic School was such a great idea!  Older kids love doing practical, hands-on activities and this activity is perfect--practical and rewarding.  "In my day" there was no course to be a babysitter. We learned from experience and some advice, especially how to pin a cloth diaper with safety pins without poking the baby.  Remember those days?
