After I had our first son at the age of 39. (Total children-22,21,16 and now 3.) My husband got to stay home and be the Stay at home dad. It was the best thing in his world, to date. He was the best. I had dinner ready for me every night, dishes, laundry etc done all the time. He thanks me everyday for that time alone with his son. After 3 years we are both back to work with an awesome Family support system. All is well and functioning better than normal. Good luck and be Happy.
