$Despedí a 28 niñeras en dos semanas. El dinero nunca fue el problema, porque ya era multimillonaria, pero mi paciencia sí lo era. Entonces ella entró: una joven negra pobre, con una mirada tranquila y tan firme que me inquietó. La contraté solo para demostrar que fracasaría como todas las demás. Pero en menos de una hora, mis seis hijas sextillizas estaban aferradas a ella, riendo a carcajadas por primera vez en años. Y yo me quedé paralizada: acababa de hacer lo que 28 personas —e incluso yo misma— no habían podido hacer.$
