Days of Sunshine, Days of Shadow Pt. 1

This week, Laura and Manly are living their best prairie lives — baby on the way, cozy house, a wheat crop with dollar signs in their eyes. Naturally, that means disaster is RIGHT around the corner.In true Little House fashion, Manly goes from "proud wheat daddy" to “just a little sick” to “I had a stroke and now I’m spiraling into a full-on pioneer pity party.” Meanwhile, Laura’s out here doing it all — farming, caregiving, and surviving her sister-in-law Eliza Jane’s smothering brand of “help.”

1. Disaster Bingo Begins!
2. Diphtheria? Check.
3. Stroke? Double check.
4. Massive financial setback? Oh honey, we’re just getting warmed up.
5. Emotional spiral? Eliza Jane is gonna Eliza Jane.

Basically: it’s the start of Wilderpalooza, and no one’s making it out with dry eyes or dry wheat. Just a newborn baby daughter.
AND THAT'S JUST PART 1!
