Thank You Brittni

In late-July 2014, Sarah Sims decided to go back to teaching and her friend, Brittni, offered to step in temporarily and help us watch the kids until we could find the right long-term nanny. Finding the right person to be a part of your family and spend a significant amount of time with your most precious little people is a big deal. I interviewed about seven candidates and couldn't find the right person. Brittni was so gracious and flexible and stayed with us from July through Dec. while we searched and searched. Finally Grant found Peyton and she started on Dec. 16. I loved Peyton the moment I met her and am very thankful that we have a permanent childcare solution in place.

Brittni is still going to be our "Plan B" and babysit the kids as needed. She is getting her real-estate license and we wish her the best in her new career! She has loved the kids and been there for us when we needed her. She loves the Lord and would pray with the children and direct them to Jesus. She had a LONG drive to our house, all the way from Forney, TX and she would often have to get to our house very early. She always had a positive and encouraging attitude, even when the kids were having hard days and were difficult to manage. She took our Walsh craziness in stride was great at logistics. On Thursdays she would pick up Cadie from school at 2:30, drop her off at piano lessons at 3pm, pick up Ranger at 3:30 from school and then pick up Cadie at 3:45 from piano - all while lugging around Colton. Thanks for being a part of our lives Brittni!
