He was doing the acting but I was like ‘I’m a stay at home mom for life. So we were ready to just throw ourselves into parenthood and we did, like full on, just dive right in. It’s family time.’ And then he had his neck surgery and we had just suddenly both ended up sitting on the couch, sitting next to each other, with all of this stuff behind us. And then the other layer on that was he was done with wrestling and grieving that and ready to move on too.
