My wife of 13 years is pregnant for the 3rd time. We are so excited we learned on August 8,2013 that the baby is a girl!!!! My wife and I presently have 2 boys DJ And Jonathan, 7 and 2 years old.
The first trimester was hard on Jackie she had a lot of morning sickness and cramps. We are now in the 2nd trimester and the nausea is still persisting. There are lots of extra work around the house I have to pick up because she is tired and ready for bed after work. So I do laundry, feed the kids, clean the house, and keep up the yard cut. Maintaining our lives was a team effort but now its a one man show. How does that make me feel? Sometimes I complain and fuss, but then I remember that she is not functioning at full capacity and Jackie reminds me that men don't know what it feels like to have someone growing inside you and she is right.
I have changed my attitude toward the extra responsibilities around the house and in our life. I have a servants heart and it is my pleasure to serve my family, cleaning is serving, laundry is serving,cooking is serving, this is my reasonable service to those who call me father. My wife has made my life a wonderfully adventure by filling it with our children, and to show my appreciation I will not complain but serve with a cheerful heart! August 13,2013 photo to follow.'
