Patsy, the life saver -- aka "The Patsy-fier"

This is a photo of Patsy, the baby nurse (with a nursing degree, multiple decades of experience, and six children of her own raised to productive and sane adulthoods) who is graciously helping out Matt and Hilary with Daniel.

Daniel, who adores Patsy, as you can see from the photo, is perfectly happy to negotiate with Patsy for warm milk at 3:47 am, letting Matt and Hilary occasionally sleep.

Three hours of uninterrupted sleep = we call Patsy the "life saver". And Daniel calls her the "Patsy-fier", since she is just as comforting as his binky.

For the record, there are two important things to take away from this post not already covered:

1. Patsy is an *excellent* cook who cheerfully helps Matt and Hilary cook great meals.

2. Matt giggles every time he writes the word "binky".
