“Sssshh, my love. It’s okay to be scared. What you went through was traumatic. You were very young and barely had any support, but this time it’s going to be different. You are going to get so much R&R that you’re going to be annoyed. You won’t have to lift a finger to do anything. We are just going to focus on your pregnancy, if that’s what you want, of course.” That made me smile a little. “Are you going to be overbearing, Daddy?” “Yes. Very. I won’t lie about that, but not so overbearing that it stresses you out. I’m going to be a little clingy.”
