She can change nappies, do the feeding and help them sleep, bathe, look after them when they are sick, play outside and walk, she would lie on the ground and colour in pictures with them etc. She was there during the “terrible teen” years with my boys as well and I loved that she was there for support In terms of cooking my children still misses “Rosah’s pap” |
