Since the day we brought Charlie home, we've had help. One of our moms have been here since day one. Mine stayed for 2 weeks, and Bob's has stayed for another two weeks. Tomorrow, Bob's mom leaves and we'll be alone. On one hand, I'm ready to see if I can do this on my own. On the other hand, I'm scared to death that I'm going to have to do this on my own. OMG.
After marrying Bob, we developed a phrase to describe our situation... I have a single wife life when he's gone. I knew I'd be mostly alone in tending to our child, because he works so much. Knowing and doing it are two totally different animals.
Since Charlie has been born, when he's home, Bob is absolutely hands on. He's doing a great job as a dad. He helps with the baby, he helps out around the house, he's been amazing. Luckily, he comes home tomorrow a few hours after his mom leaves.
So think of us tomorrow as we say goodbye to our Meme!
