Well, the answer to my problem came from my mother-in-law’s suggestion. She knew of a woman who had grown up in her old neighborhood that was married with three of her own grown kids who might  be interested. I learned later that she was also the parent of one of my favorite students. Small world. After a phone call, interview and sigh of relief she was hired. I really liked  her. She was prompt, responsible, caring, helpful, capable of handling five kids,and seemed to genuinely like them. Five years later, after the last baby went off to school, she left our home, but never our hearts.Like had  turned to love over the years and she became part of the family as we became part of hers.
