Bianca had been looking forward to visiting Naomi and her babies again, and she brought all the girls with her.

"I hope this is a good time."

"Yes, the babies should be waking from their naps right about now."

"They are so beautiful."

"Would you like to hold one?"

"Yes. I love babies." ​

"Rex and I have been hoping for another child."

"But....it's just not happening."

Faye and Judith were more interested in the babies' toys...

But Lisa, Bianca's ward, loved babies.

"Would you like to hold him?"

Naomi was touched by Lisa's gentle demeanour.

But then, when Naomi had met Lisa at Faye's birthday party last winter, Lisa had told her that she really missed her younger brothers and sisters, and especially the youngest baby.

"I'm wondering if you have found a position at court yet?"

"No, we haven't. And her mother isn't too pleased that it's taking this long."

Naomi had liked Lisa from the moment she first met her at Faye's birthday party.
​"How would you feel about taking a position here?"

"Really?"

"Yes.  I could use some help with the babies, and you are clearly very good with them."

"You would be their live-in Nanny."

"I would love that."

The other girls had been distracted by the toys...

...and finally turned their attention to the babies...

When it was time for Bianca and the other girls to leave, they left Lisa, who was eager to start her new duties.

"Thank you for taking her.  Her mother will be pleased that she has finally found a position. 
​I'll have her things sent later today."

Naomi introduced Lisa to Baron, and told him that she'd offered her the position of live-in nanny to help with the children.

"Thank you so much for offering me this position. I promise you won't regret it."

Baron was only too happy that Bianca had found someone to help with the children. ​And Naomi knew it was going to be a beneficial arrangement, not only for herself, and her babies,

 but also for Lisa.
