Practical Matters
Even though it was an amazing miracle that all four embryos continued to grow and the Johnstons are now expecting amazing four babies, it was still a pretty overwhelming situation for them to find themselves in. So, even though Johnston's husband was also happy to hear that he was finally going to be a dad, he still had a lot of serious, practical worries about the whole thing. Annie Johnston told the Daily Mail, “He was thinking more about the long run.” “About what we'd do with four babies.”
Helping Hands
Even though the Johnstons were thrilled to hear that they were finally going to have not just one, but four long-awaited children, they had to do a lot to make sure their house was ready to go from a family of two to a family of six. But even though they were worried and a little scared about the whole thing, they knew they could count on a lot of help and support. For instance, the Johnstons and the Knotts were close not just emotionally, but also physically. As the two families only lived seven houses away from each other!
