Gigi,

I assume that he was a workaholic when you married him.  First and foremost, love yourself.  How you love yourself is how you can care for your son.  If you put yourself last then that is what you are teaching him … and your husband.

It is not whether you have patience with your husband, it is how you want your marriage to be.  It is not a one sided relationship.  If he does not hold up his end then it is not a relationship.  The sooner you realize that then the sooner you can create a life that is best for you and your son.

Make sense?
