Leonard Cohen quote from The Bohemian Collective |
What a horrible, messy and emotion week I had last week.
I'm 32 weeks now, six weeks away from the twins' arrival, and my nanny and house keeper has left us. The one who has been with us for two years now, since my daughter was 7 weeks old.
She turned down our offer, which we had agreed on verbally months ago.
I am hurt and angry and worried for my daughter who is facing so much upheaval and change in her life in the months and weeks to come. And angry after all the effort, and the help, and the money we gave her and loaned her and now walked away from for the sake of our family, that people can just be so awful and mean.
So we are at a place which we never planned to be at, just over a month before the arrivals. And I need help. I know I cannot do this alone and am frankly utterly terrified of what lies ahead.
But in other news it is Lilia's second birthday this Friday and I am looking forward to celebrating that and am so glad that I have her as a little ray of sunshine in my life.
