Take Time For Yourself

Take time for yourself. That is what everyone tells us. We need time away from our children. We need time to relax. We need time to get away for a date night.

I am am a huge fan and believer that couples should always maintain their identity and be with each other when time permits. That is why you got together in the first place.

Ask any parent and they will attest that this is far easier said than done. When we had one son who slept through the night date night was a regular occurrence. Now with our second child time and energy are rare commodities and having them at the same time is like finding a unicorn. You have heard it exists but have never seen it.

We had our children because we wanted to. We want to spend time with them and love doing it. But as much as anyone can tell you that you will be tired and running around like a chicken with no head, you will not understand it until you are living it. We have made the choice to spend our time playing with our boys and watching them grow. We love every minute of it. We just forget it some times because of the pure exhaustion...
