I didn't have much time to speak with my wife as she was so busy, even though she was pregnant.
I did manage to get a few moments with her but it was only because one of her servants was unavailable. When I went into the room everyone was seriously busy.
"I missed you so much honey!" she said to me and I said "I missed you too!" She then handed me our baby.
I started telling her about how our other kids were doing. I handed our baby to a servant and then my wife handed me another of our babies.
She said she missed us all and handed me another one of our babies.
I asked her if she knew when she was gonna come home as I passed the baby on to a servant before taking another one of our babies from her.
She said she didn't know exactly as she handed me yet another one of our babies.
I handed the baby to the servant. I told her we were managing the best we could and that she wasn't to worry.
She was glad to hear it. She handed me another one of our babies and I passed it on.
I asked her how long she was popping these things out as I took another baby from her before passing it on to a servant.
"a few weeks now" she said before handing another baby to me.
"How long more?" I asked as I gave the baby to a servant before taking another baby from her.
"A few more weeks" she said as the relay of babies continued.
Soon, the servant whose place I took came back and I had to say goodbye to my dear wife again. We kissed each other goodbye.
It was very lonely but when I got home, the chorus of "Daddy!" uttered by our hundreds of daughters made me feel better.
