When I saw my wife, eight months pregnant, washing the dishes alone at ten o’clock at night, I called my three sisters and said something that left them all speechless. But the strongest reaction… came from my own mother.
Natalie made a great effort to adapt to that environment. Every time my family came to visit, she prepared meals with care, served coffee for everyone, and listened politely while my sisters talked for long stretches about work, neighbors, or childhood memories.
