I was wrong because the real shock came the evening I opened the nanny cam app and saw something that made my blood run cold.<br>AdvertisementI have 11-month-old twin boys. If you&#8217;ve never had twins, imagine sleep deprivation becoming part of your personality.For almost a year, I hadn&#8217;t slept more than three consecutive hours.Mark, my husband, traveled for work at least twice a month, sometimes more.Besides each other, we have no family.My parents passed away years ago, and I was their only child. Mark grew up in foster care, moving from one home to another. We didn&#8217;t have grandparents to call or a backup plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two weeks before everything unraveled, I broke down on the kitchen floor.&#8221;I can&#8217;t keep doing this,&#8221; I told Mark over the phone while Liam screamed in the background and Noah banged a spoon against the high chair tray. &#8220;I&#8217;m so tired I can&#8217;t even think straight anymore.&#8221;We hired through a licensed agency. I wouldn&#8217;t have trusted anything less.They ran background checks, verified references, and confirmed CPR certification. I made sure of it myself.If something went wrong, it wouldn&#8217;t be because I hadn&#8217;t done enough.They sent us Mrs. Higgins, a woman who looked around 60.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember thinking the hardest part of raising twins was the exhaustion.
