Babysitter Trauma
Of all life's events, the WORST is looking for a new babysitter.
I know that "worst" might be an exaggeration, but not by much.
JOB DESCRIPTION:
- Must be completely reliable with excellent character.
- Must have strength for physical restraint when necessary. And - must have superhuman self control for the same.
- Must have respect and affection for my child, spending time with him, consistently demonstrating care for him, regardless of the previous point.
- Must have patience and consistency. And also creativity.
Babysitter will work many hours, for less-than-stellar pay.
Doesn't seem very likely, does it?
I remind myself that, against all odds, God brought us Amazing Mr. Jim, followed by Amazing Mr. Peter. Both of them have been unbelievable gifts to us, Mr. Peter for the past 1 1/2 years.
Does yet another miraculously Amazing babysitter exist? Stay tuned.

ReplyDeleteSo far every door is closing. I'm out of leads. Have asked a few friends to be thinking of options. Hope they think of the right person. Please keep praying! Less than two months to go....
