Tuesday Look: Expectant Hipsters


This is Jo and Clay. They are the real thing. Urban, vegetarian, low carbon footprinting, vintage wearing, bike riding, social working, graphic designing, blogging, tweeting, animal loving newlyweds with a baby on the way. Johanna was our nanny. She responded to our ad on a nanny website and she was the first and last person that we interviewed. She was a dream come true and she made our lives easy and fun and she was a ray of goodness in a frantic time. She was never late for work nor do I recall her ever calling in sick and she never once wore anything short of fantastic to be with my kids. No yoga pants, no stretch, no sporty anything. She was and is pure style all the time and is graced with the greatest complexion you have ever seen (she does have a sort of obsession with exfoliant).  Although she has moved across the city and settled into a career that makes Toronto a better place for youth at risk, she never left our hearts or our family. To know Jo and Clay is to know they are blessed with a very special love waiting on a very special baby who is very very lucky.

Nice cool people profile. Why can't reality television be about more cool people like them? Instead we have shows based on greedy, ignorant and arrogant losers who think that because they are smarter than a 5th grader but have still dropped out of high school, they are better than everyone else. Good people are scarce.
