Hello, world! Insert obligitory introductory post here!

I'm Lexi Steele, and this is a blog!
Obviously.
I feel obliged to post an introduction post so someone doesn't come here expecting porn or something.

Long story short, I'm a teenager in New York, and I babysit as a main summer job, although I do various oddjobs around my neighborhood, as well. Gotta save up for college, right? What better way than to take care of kids?

So I figured, why not post various adorable things that children do for the whole world to see? Short stories and the like? Brighten up some people's days, you know? I mean, if people do it with cats and puppies and crap, why can't I do it with small paragraphs/stories?

Well, technically, this whole thing wasn't my idea- in fact, I was kinda against it at first, as I have the notorious tendency to abandon stuff like this after a few days- but my DARLING friend Jessica wouldn't leave me alone. (But I really mean that endearingly, I've known her for years and she's the best friend I've ever had <3)
Eventually, I warmed up to the idea; I mean, come on. Who DOESN'T want to hear the cute things kids do? 'Cause some of it is pretty damn fluffy and adorabubble. I have a few stories piled up in my head already, but I'll leave them for actual posts that aren't introductions.

I never really got around to making this, though- she suggested this years ago, FYI- because of a mixture of procrastination and real life. I made my account and promptly forgot about it.
So she made the blog FOR me.
She even found me a totally adorable picture for my account picture.
Which was nice of her, 'cause now I'll actually get it done. :P

She'll probably check this blog religiously to make sure I'm updating and stuff, though. Ah well. :\

In fact, she just leaned over my shoulder and-
ajlksd
Smacked me with a rolled up magazine. Newest issue of Seventeen, to be exact.
Wait, she wants to type something.

JESSE, NOT JESSICA. FOR FUCKS SAKE WILL YOU EVER GET THAT RIGHT ALEXA. YOU KNOW I HATE THAT FUCKING NAME

And this is why I'm the babysitter and she's not.

In fact, her whole personality is probably why. I mean, look at the blog's TITLE. "Watching the Children"?
Does that sound really really creeper-ish or what? XD
Goes to show that her morbid streak is about a million miles wide.

:P

So, uhm...
Yeah, expect some stories to come!

Ciao for now~!
