Paul offered to do all the nighttime feedings on Friday so that I could catch up on some much needed sleep. I went to bed at 8:30 Friday night and didn't get up till 8:30 Saturday morning. Except for a brief intermission to pump, I slept like a rock knowing that Paul was taking care of Jack all night. I felt like a new woman Saturday morning with bright eyes ready to take on the day.
Not only did Paul give me the gift of rest, but he went grocery shopping (late at night) so he could make a nice breakfast for me in the morning - complete with fresh flowers on the table!
I'm sure raising a baby will challenge our relationship at times but so far it has brought us closer together and strengthened the love we have for each other. I am so thankful for this amazing man - my best friend, the love of my life and now the father of our son.
you made me cry...
