Share my pain

So these were the new orders 2 schools in Florida for one year. We needed to be there by August 17th. Oh great another perfect birthday present. We would be living in Pensacola, Florida which is part of the panhandle. It's about 1 hour away from Alabama and Georgia, which made it the south. Most people don't think of florida as the south but it is. I would be traveling in the last month of my pregnancy so I spoke to the doctor about some concerns. He suggested that a car trip of that length could cause serious complications and that I should look into delivering the baby and then joining my husband afterwards.

I thought about my choices, so I should I could be alone again but this time with 2 children and one of them being a newborn and then fly alone on a 5 hour plane ride with two children in tow, all the while I haven't been with him for a year and now just add another couple of months vs making a 3 day car trip into a 5 day trip due to frequent stops for my and the baby's safety.

This was his baby and the last thing I was going to allow him to do is not be involved with all the late night feedings and the diaper changing and the jealous sibling. I was already in a state of irritability, I needed him to share my pain.
