Could I do it???

Quite often the hypothetical question is raised of men, if we could, would we do the pregnancy thing. Isn't this the most silly question? I mean, beyond it being so hypothetical, it is unfair to answer. As a husband I am amazed by my wife. As a husband I am inspired by my wife. As a husband I am doing everything in my power to help in any way I can. But how dare I act as if I know what she is going through. How dare I act all cool and say that I would do it for you if I could? I do not know that. I do not know if I could if I had the chance.
What I do know is that it is a miracle that I am watching everyday. Today, my senior rabbi and I were meeting and we were talking about November, and he mentioned that I should be rocking my baby to sleep at 2:00am in November. That is nothing short of a miracle. And I did little to cause it. My wife on the other hand is the miracle worker who is carrying this precious baby inside her. Who has allowed her body to be taken over by this beautiful baby. My wife is my hero. I do not think for a second that I could say I would do this if I could. Because that belittles the realness of what Carrie is doing everyday. I love my wife for so much, and now I love her even more because now she is my superwoman.
