Hello mylotters, this has been a sad morning because someone who I trusted for almost 5 years, I discovered this morning she stole my gold in the last 3 months. And she has been hypocrite, because she returned working here. I noticed some bad moods in the last months that was making me feel unconfortable. But I tried to be patient with her. But this morning, a cold morning I went to my room looking for a knitted cap, and OMG I discovered with sadness that I had to stop trusting in her. I would like to cry, because I feel dumped and so naive thinking that my jewels were safe with her at home. I had those jewels at home since she arrived, and they were always well hidden in the place of my scarves and knitted hats. The last time I saw them was three months ago. I`m waiting for her come to work today, I`ll have to stop her, and to make her sign some papers, legal papers to avoid having further problems with her. Nobody of my family took those jewels, nor my hubby, nor my three children, I trust them blinded eyes. She is the only guilty. I feel so sad. But she digged her own hole. God loves me so much! Because this morning, with this problem, my eldest girl conforted me: Mommy don`t worry so much. We are not as children as 5 years ago!! (that`s right, I have no more babies at home). And my husband came out from work to help me stand out all legal papersheet with her. Scly, I feel very sad. But if God is with me, who`ll be against me? Jewelry is very useful, when you are in need, because you can get some money from it. But love is much more valuable that anything! Blessings mylotters... dainy

I really hope that you have proof of what you are saying here because a worker who has been with you for so many years would not simply want to risk her reputation over such a petty theft. Somehow, I do not feel that it is anywhere logical and that there might be some misunderstanding. Other than your helper, do you have other people helping in your household? Any recent major renovations or repairs done in your house? Does your helper's family members/friends ever come visiting at your place? Did your house had a party recently? Or, did you accidentally misplaced your jewelry? If it is indeed stolen and used to exchange for cash, then a visit to the nearest cash converter shop or pawn shop to check might yield some results. Or, call the police to help, because this is a crime. I am sorry for your loss and hope that you would consider carefully than go down without finding out the truth of what actually happened in your house.

Oh, dainy, that is sad for you. You almost have to have anything valuable locked up anymore in order not to have it stolen. Does this mean you will prosecute her, and that you will not have household help any more?

Hello dear Gardengerty, thanks you for your advice. It`s true, I should have locked them. Since I was a girl, since I was born til I was 16, I had a nanny and house helper, and she was always humble, kind, tender and lovely. I always had jewels in my room and never locked, then when she moved, some other 4 house helpers helped on my parents home, and I have never kept locked nothing. Before "Lucero" I had some two house helpers. The first stole my husband`s watch and I stopped her. The second stole my canaries. Can you believe it? My poor birds. But with Lucero, she arrived our home (that`s your too) 5 years ago, and was very trustful, never took nothing, nothing. She asked a month ago for some borrowed money, but I didn`t have to loan her. But I trusted her. But this is a lesson to learnt. Isn`t this way that we learn life lessons? I`m happy because children are not more babies, and they´d and me, would be prepared to make our own house chores again. As I did it for ten years. God is so great! Because he gives us love, to be joined, and health to work. Don`t you think so? Blessings dear Gardengerty... dainy

Hi Dainy... I'm sorry to hear the news... My advice to you is, inform the cops... You're so certain that no one else could have done it, right? It definitely means that she's the culprit... I know how saddened you are at the broken trust... But my friend, thats how life is! It is cruel and breaks bad news to us all the time... So first thing tomorrow, is to inform police and have her place searched... If she's innocent, she'll not panic... But if she's, she might create a scene- a hypocrite scene... Good Luck my friend... Take care..

Hello dear Andy, yes is right when people has a vice, it`s very difficult to them to get rid of it. Someone who steals once, can steal twice. Thanks you for your advice. Thanks you to worry about. Blessings andy... dainy

Thanks for sharing such incidents are so common, they stole cash, food items from kitchen, soaps, detergent powders, once you point out; they stop coming for work, reporting to police will make things complicated.. How ever you take decision that you think proper

It is really hard trusting people and hard to let other come and receive them here in our home. =( sometimes it is but godly to trust but then we also have to be careful and be on guard. The thing is you have the chance to confront her about this and unlike others who have been stolen from... we would not be able to recover the lost. Just try to talk to her first, though as even if she is the only suspect, we cannot be sure where or who might have really gotten the jewelries. just give her the benefit of the doubt and the chance to explain.

I feel so sorry to hear what happened to you. It is not easy to be the victim of theft. I was also victimized more than a year ago by a helper who took my cellphone with her when she went home without permission. She was a certified thief and I know that she is now suffering from that crime she did.

How old are your three children? Are you so sure one of them couldn't be turning against God? But if it is your helper, has something happened that has turned her? Is there a new boyfriend blackmailing her? Or did he get into the house? (I assume it can't be a new baby, because you'd know if she'd been away from work?)

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. I can understand what state of mind u are going through at present but after the whole incident i can say that u should calm down first and recall everything from a clear mind. U should consult your husband and your children about whatever has happened in your house. Often we take wrong decisions out of anger and disappointment and in the end we repent our decisions. I think u should try to collect all the evidence if u think your maid was responsible for that and then u can do the rest proceedings. What say?
