Once home, Dr. Sanders’ jaw dropped when she saw her home perfectly tidy.
“What happened here? My house… is unrecognizable. And why aren’t the kids screaming and running around?”
“Lucy is napping, and Christie and Johnny are in their rooms, reading,” Bob answered.
“What? Are you kidding me?”
“No, go see.”
Shocked, Dr. Sanders asked, “How did you do this?”
“Oh, Dr. Sanders. I was a single father raising kids once. Mine were ten times worse than these three angels,” Bob laughed. “I taught them to pick up after themselves and narrated them fairy tales. Your kids ate that up. You might want to buy them more books.”
As Bob was leaving, Dr. Sanders apologized for being late once again and offered him money, but he refused, saying it was his pleasure to spend some time with the children.
Dr. Sanders was very grateful. That night, when she recalled how her day went, she decided to offer Bob to take care of her children instead of working as a garbageman.
She offered him a salary three times hire than what he earned at his job. The babysitting job would come with more health benefits.
After giving it some thought, Bob accepted the job and Dr. Sanders was so thankful that she gave him a Christmas bonus and plane tickets to his family could visit Disneyland in California later that year.
This mom realized that her kids needed someone who felt like family to take care of them. They hated daycare because they didn’t like being around strangers.
