The girls and Quinn were quite upset at the thought of Mommy leaving for an hour. I explained they'd have their nanny taking care of them, and it would be late, so they'd be asleep at any rate.
"Why do we need a babysitter then, if we're going to sleeping?"
"What do you mean? I can't leave you alone at home at night," I stated.
"Well, if we're sleeping, then there's nothing for the babysitter to do," Aisling explained. "It's not like you watch us when we're sleeping either. You sleep too!"
Well, I guess I couldn't really argue with that logic. Except I pointed out if something was to happen while they were sleeping, and I wasn't home, then our nanny could help them or take care of the issue. Similarly, when I am home, albeit sleeping at night, I am there for them to awaken if the need should arise. Like when she threw up in bed last week.
