OVERHEARD MY HUSBAND TELLING OUR 4-YEAR-OLD SON, “JUST PROMISE YOU’LL NEVER TELL YOUR MOM WHAT YOU SAW!”
I came home early and overheard my husband talking to our 4-year-old, Mike, upstairs. I paused to listen.
Husband: “Buddy, just promise you’ll never tell your mom about what you saw, alright?”
Son: “Okay, daddy. But why is it a secret? I don’t like secrets.”
Husband: “It’s not a secret. Just forget it, or else mom might be sad. You don’t want that, right?”
Son: “Yeah, daddy.”
“Honey! Mike! What are you two talking about?” I called out. “Nothing, just boys talk,” my husband replied..
Later, on a work trip, I asked my husband to send me photos of our son while I was away. When I received the last photo, it all suddenly clicked. 
Paige loves her career, even if it means being away from home a lot. However, when she returns from a business trip, she overhears a cryptic conversation between her husband and her four-year-old son. Little does she know — the thread of her marriage is about to unravel. When I think about the foundations of my life, there were three that always stood out: my husband, Victor, my son, Mason, and my career. Despite the storms that Victor and I weathered together, including four heart-wrenching miscarriages, we emerged stronger than before the storm.
