Thank God For Understanding Husbands

Ever since I took that pregnancy test and found it positive, my dearest hubby has been extra attentive and helpful. He has always been very helpful around the house but now, even more so. He does the laundry, everything from washing to hanging and to taking it down, cleans up after I cook, sets the table and does the dishes. Its almost like I hardly do anything anymore at home, except cook. Even then he doesn't let me cook every day and takes me out for dinner almost every other day, and orders take-out food like Pizza everytime somebody calls to come over.

I have been so tired that coming home from work, I sometimes hardly feel like doing anything. (what's new right?) I wonder how all those women who have to do everything themselves cope ? What about those who have to do everything themselves and have older children to take care of? I shudder to think what will happen to me if I didn't have such a supportive and loving husband.

I suddenly remember my conversation with my aunt who has 5 kids, all about 2 years apart. I asked her whose decision it was to have so many kids? She said it was mainly my uncle's decision and she was quite taken aback when he first mentioned. But throughout her first pregnancy, my uncle did everything for her and she lived like a queen. After her child was born, he woke up during night feedings and he basically helped out in every aspect when he was home. So my aunt said she didn't mind having 4 more. My uncle is very sweet dun u think? Suddenly I wonder if my hubby has such plans ??? *OH NO!!!* But sweet or not DEFINITELY NO 5 KIDS FOR ME!!!
