[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have been having a really rough time the past few months, coming after two years of mutual anger and resentment. Things are so bad that we're sleeping in separate rooms, for the first time in our 11 years of marriage. But last night was really good. Our toddler was coughing and vomiting and didn't get to sleep until midnight. AND, our cat got sick - there was vomit and diarrhea everywhere. We were up until 3:30 am cleaning everything up. But we did it all together. He bathed our son, and I bathed the cat. He cleaned the furniture, and I cleaned the carpets. He worked on the laundry, and I took out the trash and made us something to eat. We took a break around 1:00 am and ate together while watching part of a movie, then we got back to work. He didn't disappear, and I wasn't stressed and frustrated. When our son woke up cranky and calling for me at his usual time this morning I was exhausted, but the first thing I felt was: grateful. Grateful I wasn't doing it all alone the night before, grateful that my husband was there to help. Who could have thought such a night could end up feeling so good?[/quote]
