My husband and I seem to be super picky about who we have watch our kids– but then we remember how it was when we were kids~

If we are lucky, date night happens once or twice a year–

As the kids get older and more people are “willing, and interested” in watching the kids– I do beleive we will get alone time more often.

If we do not feed that friendship then everything else suffers. Maintaining a strong friendship creates a happy and healthy marriage, which makes a happy and healthy home for our children. And it helps that the oldest is 13 and can baby sit for short periods of time. Once we determined that we could leave the house for an hour and not return to find a smoldering pile of ashes, life became easier.
