Our ayi came on today and after a fairly quick tour and explanation with my broken Chinese and hand motions, she got to work cleaning and ironing and doing laundry. The boys and I were able to focus on playing and having fun. We moved our normal grocery shopping to Tuesday, so I could stay and answer any questions that our Ayi had for me. I was amazed that I was fairly comfortable having her there all day. She is very pleasant to be around, although I do not always understand what she is trying to tell me. The kids have already warmed up to her, and she is a very hard worker. I am hopeful that this pattern will continue and that it will be a nice working relationship.
Unfortunately, they never showed up to do the ceiling today, so I will have to contact them tomorrow.
