Central Park picnic

Thursday, October 19, 2006
Nanny and child on Blue Striped Beach Towel or Blanket at around 11/12 today. The nanny was laying on her elbow enjoying the day with the child. The garbage can was about 200 feet away. The nanny and child were eating lunch and all seemed well until clean up time came about. The little girl who was in my best estimate 3 or 4 was charged with throwing out the garbage. The first time the nanny pointed to the garbage can. The child made three trips. During the last two trips by the child, the nanny was facing the opposite direction (watching a shirtless man, BTW). Anything could have happened to that child. The nanny was plain lazy. Even after they sat for a while longer,I could see that. When they were ready to go the nanny sat up and pointed at things scattered on the blanket and the child scurried to get them and bring them to her so she could pack them away. Don't we lead by example anymore? One last note, I had my eye on the girl the whole time because it was a crowded environment and I felt obligated to watch out for the child since the nanny was not. The nanny was wearing blue jeans and white Keds. She had a knee length sweater on and the child had dark hair, medium complexion, huge brown eyes and was wearing a pink corduroy skirt and white sweatshirt that zipped up and had decorations on it.
