Lin makes life easier. Period. Yes, she knows how to fold everything just right and hangs things that need to be hung dry, and gentle washes the delicates, but this is only the beginning of how she truly anticipates our family's needs- all of a sudden our messiest drawers will be organized, she notices when a light bulb is out and takes the initiative to replace it, or will find and order the matching piece of crystal that broke off the chandelier. With Lin, the details don't go unnoticed, and it really is the small things that matter. She reads our family like a book and fits in seamlessly to our routine. I will never forget sitting on the living room floor with her helping me wrap Christmas presents for my step kids when I was sure I could never get it done in time. She may love my dog as much as I do. She will become part of the family, a friend, an ally, and a true source of peace when juggling all that life has to throw at you gets a little messy.
