Among the Boston jobs right now, perhaps the best one is a janitorial position in the Boston hardwood court. Not only will you get a free pass to the games in Boston especially during the finals, but you also get to see Pierce, Garnett and the rest of the Celtics up close.

Although the confetti and all the other litter would be quite troublesome, it would be alright so long as the Celtics fans are the ones celebrating the victory. Yup, I confess! I am a Celtics fan. Actually, to be more precise, I’m a Suns fan but since Phoenix wasn’t able to make it to the finals, and since Boston is my second team, I’m cheering for them this time.

Just when we thought we finally hit the jackpot this time with mateo’s nanny, we were once again disappointed. You see, a few days ago, the yaya went to andrea to tell her about the news she received from her aunt. According to her, her aunt just informed her that her brother died. At first we were skeptical about the whole thing, but later that same day, we saw her weeping inside the room so we figured it must be true.

This morning however, we called up the agency and found out that there were no news of death that came to them. Andrea grew suspicious. She questioned the yaya and the yaya slipped. Not only was she not able to confirm the truth about her brother’s death, she also messed up with her answers about certain things - things like her true age for example. She’s not 18 as what her papers claimed to be. She was only 16 years old. I told andrea that we should let her go no matter what. (Hiring minors is not exactly legal in this country.)

Upon further investigation, we found out that even before the death news, her aunt already received complaints from the yaya about the work. It wasn’t the other way around. Apparently, the yaya was finding it difficult to handle mateo so she wanted out.

I don’t get it? Why didn’t she just tell us. Why did she have to result to lying just to get out. We would have willingly let her go. I mean we don’t want anybody taking care of mateo who would feel uncomfortable doing so.

And what’s with our baby? I know he can get annoying and very irritating sometimes, but I don’t think his mischief and tantrums are beyond the range of usual babies. He has his good sides too. As a matter of fact, our co-workers in school find mateo adoring and funny. Do I have to put a gold chain around his neck just so his nannies could withstand his antics? I don’t think so.

Anyway, that’s our yaya problem right now so we’re looking for another one. We’re praying that somebody better comes along. We’re not after a perfect nanny! All we’re asking for is someone who would love mateo almost as much as we do!
