Jack and I used to be able to read each other's minds. After all our years together we had this certain vibe about us. We just always knew our moods or feelings without having to say a word.
As most know, raising a child/children has it's moments, lots of joy but a little bit of stress. Don't get me wrong Jack had the patience of Job, I marveled at his skills with Ben."Daddy Daddy again", was a common word in our household and he never faltered.
Through Ben's growing up years Jack and I relied on each other for relief from overseeing 12+ kids in our backyard, we just knew when to be a tag team. I could sense when he was at his limit, not just outdoor stuff, but homework, chores etc..
We were a tag team...but now I'm it.
