Father Figures: Would Do It Again

“We tried for 6 years to get pregnant.
During those 6 years we got pregnant with twins and I went into labor early. We went through hell for two weeks. Day two of being in the hospital I delivered a stillborn baby and he never left my side. I was then put on flat bedrest in an attempt to stop labor and not deliver the second baby.
Unfortunately, on day 17 I delivered the second baby. He lived for an hour fighting for his life while no one would help him because we were still days away from being of viable age.
Bob kept us strong. He worked tirelessly to make the money for us to keep trying, even when I had lost hope.
When I finally got pregnant again I was on bedrest the whole 9 months and he worked around the clock making money and taking care of me. We now have a super smart 8-year-old and twin 5-year-olds and he still seems to work around the clock caring for us all.
We went through a lot the last 13 years and I would do it all again without hesitation because this man is the definition of father. Strong, caring, dependable, and resilient.”
