here's a copy of the ad I ran in craigslist. I had offered her this several weeks ago but I think she felt it wasn't possible to find someone.
I have now received several applications in response to this ad, however I want to appear to my wife as helpful not pursuing and certainly not desperate.
Here's the ad:

I am looking for a reliable woman with her own vehicle to help look after my 2 kids in Longmont.
I work nights as a nurse, and usually know my schedule 2 months in advance, so I can give you a fixed schedule of when I will need your help.
My daughter is 14, and my son is 9. Your duties will include making them dinner, making sure they do their homework, reading with my son at night, and occassionaly driving them to school, the rec center and karate.
Let me know if you are interested and we can talk more about the details.
Thanks Mach, I'm leaning towards just continuing to wait for her, but I am also more aware than ever how my previous failures to support her have really impacted how she feels about me.
I am being the possibility of:
1) Integrity 2) Loving myself completely. 3) Things flowing naturally between us, without any fear or attachment to the outcome.
