11 years ago Gloria retired. Coincidentally, her granddaughter Anna was born almost at the same time. Gloria earned good money and was not ready for such a small pension.
– Why don’t your children pay you money to sit with their children? Firstly, they will be calm that the children are not sitting with strangers, and secondly, your financial problem will be solved.
At first Gloria did not take her friend’s advice seriously, then, when the lack of finances began to affect her life, she offered her children her help.
– Son, I can get along with Anna, and you and Kate will work.
It is worth noting that after that Gloria’s daughter-in-law was promoted to the management department. And so, she gave a certain percentage of her salary to her mother-in-law for sitting with their daughter. Gloria was a very good nanny. She read fairy tales to her granddaughter, told interesting stories from her life, they cooked, walked and played various games together.
Recently Anna turned 9 years old. The daughter-in-law said that Anna is already a grown-up girl and she does not need a nanny. So, Gloria was deprived of her salary. In addition, the son was repairing the house, all the money went there.
– Well, that’s it, our nanny has fulfilled her mission. Anna is already an adult and an independent girl, – said Gloria’s daughter-in-law to her friend.
– And you will continue to pay money?
– She received money for her services. And now we do not need her services… Listen, she knew very well that after the decree our affairs were not quite good. Even at that time I paid her to the last penny, and she never refused to pay. She is a smart woman, she will think of something, she will not be lost.
– And when she becomes completely unable to work?
– Well, then we will help her, of course. But not now; now we are not millionaires anyway.
