"Josie wake up! Josiee wake up!, I was forced out of my sleep by my little sister,Jolanda yelling for me to wake up.
"whaaatttt",I yelled back.
"You awake?,Fully awake?",she asked in an excitedly impatient tone.
"Come on jolie,tell me why you invaded my beauty sleep", I replied pulling her to me for a hug.
"I think I found a job you could manage",She said excitedly.
I looked at her confused.
"what do you mean?",I asked rubbing my eyes.
"There is this job for a nanny and I know you are the one",she said looking at me smiling questionably
"uhmm,I don't know Jolie,I don't know anything about caring for children.How am I supposed to care for a child?",I answered trying not to act disappointed.
"Sissy,I know you will be great at this job. Remember you used to babysit me and nothing went wrong. You can do this",she replied.
"That was different jolie,you are my sister. I really think I cant do this",I replied.
She stood up from my bed and said," Let me give you time to think about it. When you ready you can come and get the job details".
She gave me a hug and as she reached the door she said,"I believe in you,sissy".
"I cant believe she said that. I hardly know anything about children",I thought to myself.
I got up from my bed,took a shower and went downstairs for breakfast.
"Good Morning mum,"I greeted my mum as I kissed her cheek .
"Good morning honey,slept well? ",she asked.
I nodded as I served myself. My mum joined me at the table and we ate in silence.
" Jolie told me that she found a job and you were not upto it",my mum said.

"Mum,its a nanny job and I know nothing about it",I replied in a frustrated tone.
"I know honey,but why not give it your best chance. You never know what may come out of it. Remember,Never say Never",my mum said.
"Think about it love,this may be your chance",she continued.
"I will think about it though I can't promise you anything",I replied as I finished the last bit of fruit,carried my dishes to the sink and started cleaning the kitchen.
I called sherry to see how her first day of work was going so far. She told me it was so fun,everyone was nice to her though she missed me.
I hang up after talking to her and turned to the job advert website. There it was. Nanny needed for 3 children.
"How will I hold up with caring for three children?. They may be spoilt- bratty children who will hate me with a passion and get me fired on the first day",I thought to myself. Thinking of this made me remember Matthew and his three angels. "I wonder how they are doing".
"I cannot do this" ,I mumbled to myself.
"I believe in you sissy," "Never say Never". My sister and mum's words kept repeating in my head.
"I can do this,It won't hurt to try and fail than fail to try",I said to myself as I picked up my phone and dialed the number.
The phone was answered by a lady on the third ring.
"Hello,lynda speaking",she said .
"Uh..Um...Hello,my name is Josie Pyre and I am calling for the nanny job you posted.
"Oohh alright Miss Josie, let me schedule an interview for you tomorrow at 9:00am please be early,the boss doesn't like being late.Hope 9:00am is okay with you",she replied.

"Uh..yes that's okay. Thank you",I said and hang up.
"Phewwww,that was not so hard as I initially thought",I sighed.
At dinner,I told everyone that I decided to try the nanny job and i had an interview tomorrow. They all hugged and told me all will be well. We cleaned up and went upstairs to bed.
Before I could enter my bed,I had a knock on my door.
"come in",I called.
The door opened revealing my mum and baby sis wearing smiles.
"I am so happy that you gave it consideration honey",my mum said hugging me.
"I know you will get that job because you are smart,you can figure this out",jolanda continued.
"Awwwww,thank you guys. If you two didn't motivate me I wouldn't try it. Thank you",I said hugging them both.
We said our goodnights and they went to their rooms.
"Hope I get this job ......"I thought to myself as I drifted off to sleep.
