These kids are so awesome that I ALMOST want to have another one. I get over that pretty quickly though! I never again want to experience the solid year of depression struggles that pregnancy and childbirth bring with them for me. Some people enjoy being pregnant and to them I say, "Cheers! Go knock yourself out (or up, as it were)!" Hormones and I do not get along.This is a total change of subject, but Doug was fantastic while we were up with my family in Seven Points! He was a constant support for all of us, but especially my step-father, Frank. I know it was completely exhausting for him - it was for all of us - but he was wise enough to take care of himself too. He asked his parents to come to town early to help us take care of the kids. That helped a lot!

I completely agree. Doug was wonderful through everything. He was very kind and supportive. I don't know how Frank would have made it through without the help of Doug and his own friends. Now that all the responsibilities are pretty much over Frank is doing much better. I, on the other hand, felt better when I had things to be responsible for. Now that the memorial is over and everyone has gone home I feel lost and so alone in that house! I guess it's just something that God and I will have to get through.
