My husband was more than supportive when I was in the hospital. Even all the kids really pitched in to help him out... at least he said they did!! Poor guy was driving home, downtown, home, downtown, 3 times a day. He came first thing in morning after getting kids off the bus, Leave to get the off the bus, back down for kids to see me, leave again to get them home and asleep, and then come back down to stay the night.... then he'd get up at 5am to get home to get them ready for school and on the bus. I believe that is certainly more domestic work than he's had to do in our 14 years of marriage. I know it was very hard on him... but he got it done! I love you Christopher Brown!!
The older kids would have to sleep with the small ones and keep them asleep... they would have to help in the morning to make sure there were clothes and bags packed for everyone. Philip and Courtney were amazing! I would have had to stay in the hospital all by myself at night if they would not have stepped up to help and do what other family members should be here with us doing! Thank you so much kids! I love you Philip and Courtney Brown!!!!
This entire experience was very difficult to go through...and add that we are 600 miles from our family. That compounded everything for everyone. It certainly made it harder physically, emotionally, and mentally! I thank the Good Lord for my wonderful husband and children that keep me going every day! He has blessed me with the most wonderful gift!!! What else could I possibly need than their love?
When I finally got to go home on Friday they continued to take care of me. They cooked, and cleaned up the house, and even changed every diaper!!! I didnt lift a finger all weekend! Its even a holiday weekend and no one complained or moaned about not doing anything. They took such good care of me!!!
