(and I actually don't CARE about smoking if it's not in my house and around the kids...but it's the LYING!!!)
Ohhh, the honeymoon period.

Our current au pair went the extra mile when she first got hers but now she’s a grouch and ready to go home. Oh well...

I agree! We thought our last au pair was pretty good but our new one has been here one week and she has been amazing! Definitely a difference.
