I need to give some much needed props to Carl. I seriously don’t know how he does it. He has been working six days (nights) a week since mid-July. Most of his shifts have been 10+ hours. Since I’m back to work for the school year, he can no longer sleep until whenever so he is getting 3-4 hours of sleep with the exception of his one night off. He needs to get out of bed at 8 a.m. to get Connor on the bus at 8:15 and start his day with the girls. He doesn’t rest, he doesn’t nap. He takes care of a 3 and 2 year-old…gets them up, dressed and fed, potty and diapers, plays with them, runs errands, does housework. He also runs his soccer training company from home so in his spare time (which really means when he is doing all of the things I mentioned because he has no spare time) he schedules training, emails coaches, talks with trainers and creates/sends invoices.
He does all of the things that a stay-at-home parent does but with very little sleep, a full-time job, a part-time job, only one day off and little-to-no complaining. Oh, and he plays soccer himself on Sunday mornings too…to keep himself fit and sane.
So ‘holla’ to my husband (D…had to steal it just this once)!
You’re the best. ;)
Holla to Carl ;)
