“I know, but I still need to say it," Sharon Lindt said. "Annabeth, you can tell us if you feel uncomfortable at any time. Don't hold back.” Annabeth Cates nodded again.
This family had no blood ties to her, but everyone treated her as if they did. She was truly grateful for them.
"Also, don't play with your phone, or you'd get eye diseases during postpartum recovery. Don't watch television either," Sharon added.
She bobbed her head, resolved to be a good daughter-in-law, and do as told, despite how badly she wanted to use her phone.
She also wanted to take videos of her baby to show her parents.
"I know you want to play with your phone, but listen to Mom for now. I'll share the good news with your parents when morning comes," Josh Batton said with a knowing look and a chuckle.

Meanwhile, Sharon continued to stay in the ward to look after the new mother, who fell asleep not long after because of exhaustion.
Sharon and Josh watched over the baby in her cot as she slept.
Shortly after that, they both fell asleep while leaning against the cradle, and this was the sight that greeted Annabeth's eyes when she woke up.
She felt deeply touched by this scene, tears filling her eyes.
She had a good sleep last night, but they didn't.
Right then, Candice started to cry.
“Waah! Waah!” her voice sounding shrill and piercing, making her father and grandmother simultaneously jerk awake to sit upright. Now wide awake, Sharon checked on her diaper to verify that it needed changing, so she carefully replaced it with a new one.
She did it with practiced hands.
l
After replacing her diaper, she picked the baby up, glancing at Josh. Prepare her bottle, please. Just follow the instructions and remember to use warm water."
He got up to do as instructed.
Seeing them taking care of Candice so well made her smile.
"Mom, Honey, thank you both," she beamed at them.
Sharon sat next to her with an unconcerned expression on her face. "There's no need to thank us. It's what we should do, anyway. As your-mother-in-law, when else am I supposed to offer my assistance?"
Annabeth felt warm in her heart again.
