Dear Ana, My name is Taye Mohler and we would very much like to talk with you about joining our family as Au Pair and friend. I will send introductory email shortly and try to call you soon.
Quase morri...meu coração chegou na boca....instantes depois:
Hello from the Mohler's!
We live in Woodbury, Minnesota – an upscale suburb of Saint Paul and Minneapolis. Close to great shopping (e.g. Mall of America), museums, theme parks, concert and sports venues, summer lake beaches and winter ski slopes – the area offers a wide variety of activities that we hope you'll enjoy.
Todd and I have 3 bustling children. Jack 7, Elizabeth 4, and Ava 15 months.
Jack is in Elementary school. He loves playing outdoors –skateboarding, building forts, biking, football, track, basketball, playing at the beach and with friends. He is a good student who likes math, reading, music and Wii games. He is a sensitive, responsible little guy who makes sure the rest of us are keeping to homework, tasks, etc.
Elizabeth (Sissy) will be attending Kindergarten next Fall and enjoys arts and crafts, coloring and music. She can be shy in new surroundings but is a funny, outgoing little girl with friends. Elizabeth enjoys "running", beach time, dress up, and playing with her best friend – Daniel.
Ava is a jolly little girl who is independent and happy. She enjoys playing baby dolls and kitchen with her big sis or wrestling with brother. She loves naps, cuddling, stroller rides/jogs, play time and puppy dogs.
Todd a former college athlete is now in Sales and commutes to work in Minneapolis. I enjoy music and toured overseas in college. Today I am in technology with Accenture and together Todd and I own www.gravelroadkids.com , a children's online boutique.
We are looking for someone who is passionate about children first and foremost. You are independent, active, creative and organized. Responsibilities would include getting the children ready and off to school and from school, preparing children's meals, organizing and planning children's activities such as crafts, outdoor games, museum trips, beach days, visits to the zoo, library day etc.., maintaining children's laundry and household basics while we are away. We expect that you have a valid driver's license and we will provide you with your own vehicle for driving the children and for school and personal use.
Ideally you enjoy being active and may have played sports as well as have an interest in music or an instrument. Our family while not at work likes to spend time in our yard gardening, barbecuing and spending time with neighbors/friends, going to the beach, parks and summer concerts and sports with the kids.
We are excited to talk with you more and answer your questions. We will by trying to contact you this evening through the next couple of days. We look forward to learning more about your family, culture and goals.
Cheers,
The Mohler's
Conversei com outras famílias, mas nada tão empolgante.
Ontem de manhã recebo outro telefonema de Taye:
-Ana, we requested a match with you today with Au Pair Care to join our family, our request assumes arrival to US on 5/19. Au Pair Care may be reaching out to you soon and at that time they will ask you to confirm that you would like to match.
- Okay Taye. That´s ok for me...
Caraca, agora é real, em pelo menos 40 dias estarei morando em Minnesota - Woodburry.
Minnesota, here I go!!
