Actually Mary Poppins didn't come to our house but Charity did. She is Elizabeths' new attendant. She comes to our house Sunday through Thursday from 3-7 to help me with Elizabeth. As an added bonus she helps me with Sarah too. I actually have my life partially back. I had forgotten what it felt like to not be in crisis mode by the end of each day.
Here is a short list of what I can do now.
-Make dinner without my house/kids going crazy
-Go to the store without feeling frazzled the whole time.
- Get parts of my house cleaned.
- Not worry that Elizabeth is going to run out into the street.
- I have another adult to talk to instead of just talking to myself all day.
Those are just a few things. In the weeks she has been here I have also managed to have a clean kitchen,living room and both the girls rooms have stayed mostly cleaned. I am thankful for the help that she provides.
