Trick Question

I exhaled. ‘Even with the help of a housekeeper and a nanny, it was exhausting. There was no break, you know. You are on the job twenty-four-seven. The midnight diaper changes, the visits to the doctor when Ken had a cough or a cold or a runny nose, the frequent trips to the store because you bought the wrong kind of formula. There’s no end to it.
