[quote=Anonymous]How about a mother's helper? It seems like your wife wants to be around but if she had someone in the house with her (maybe a 13- 15 yr old neighbor) who can play with the 8 year old and help with add hoc things like grabbing wipes while she is changing the baby b/c she forgot to stock the changing table (it happens to all of us). Just an extra set of hands for whatever she needs at the time and in the moment. Sometimes it is hard to envision what you need in advance and that can feel overwhelming instead of helpful. Or someone who can come from 5-8 and help with dinner and bathing the kids before bed. Those can be the witching hours for many families with young kids. [/quote]
