I just had this random memory of when I was a live in nanny and the eldest girl I looked after who was 5 was doing a school play and really wanted her dad to come see her and he said he would but he never showed upI just remember seeing her looking around for him and I could see the pain in her eyes but she was trying to hold it all in
So afterwards she went to the cloakroom and I went to talk to her and my heart broke for that little girl and I just sat there and we cried together and I apologised for him and made excuses for him
Then we sorted ourselves out and I made her laugh and smile so she could go back to class and be ok
It’s something that will stay with me forever because I loved those girls like they were my own and I felt her pain that day.
