One year ago

One year ago, daycare was closed so Tim took the day off to hang out with Henry. Honestly, it was hard for me to let Tim have the day...I wanted an extra day to play! But they did visit me for lunch. And all the playing they did wiped Henry out! In the afternoon, Tim had been playing with Henry on the floor, and he just fell asleep right there.

Henry and I are lucky to have Tim. He is a devoted husband...wanting nothing more than for me to be happy. He willingly will sacrifice his wants and needs to take care of mine. He took care of me for months of bedrest without a single complaint. And once Henry got here, he was a loving and devoted Daddy. He did feedings, baths, diapers. He could make Henry smile in a way no one else could. And Henry's giggles were usually a direct result of his daddy's silliness.

So today, although I miss Henry terribly, I am so very thankful that I have Tim. He and I have become a strong team, leaning on each other to get through the hard times and together celebrating the good times. And we both look forward to the day when we once again have a little one so tuckered out from playing that he or she simply falls asleep on the floor.
