Where My Husband is in All of This
I just noticed the other day that I don’t post much about Brett, my hubby. It’s not intentional. After all, this is a blog about raising a child with special needs. Of course I don’t want anyone to think I’m doing this alone. That couldn’t be farther from the truth! In fact, in all of this he is my biggest support, and I am his. However, when it comes to researching, school issues, doctor issues, etc., he defers to me. Not because he’s not interested. But because he knows that I will get all of our questions and concerns answered. And, not to put him down, and not to brag, but I will do it better then him. In the context of “we”, that is my strength. I believe that after you spend a week in the hospital next to your child, who almost died-by the way, it will either make you or break you. And fortunately for us, it made us so much stronger. I know for a fact that we can get through anything that gets in our way. Not saying our path will always be easy.
One of the strengths in our marriage is that we keep no secrets from each other. It makes life so much easier when there is nothing to hide. We are brutally honest with each other. And truth be told, sometimes he’s more brutal. But I think that’s because he’s a guy.
Brett’s a great father. A wonderful husband. And my bestest friend ever.
Just sayin’
