My wife and I have a 2 and a half year old and expecting a second. Before our first was born, we made a promise that we would go on one child free vacation a year, just the 2 of us. I realize that we are extremely privileged to be able to do this, but it is really nice to have time away from our daughter and reconnect with each other in a way we really can’t when our daughter is around. I know it’s hard to be away from your kids, and it’s okay to miss them and think about them, but I believe it’s also important to have time with just your spouse, even if it is just for a few days. It’s so easy to get worn down by the daily grind of raising kids, so time away with each other just helps to remind us why we fell in love and decided to start a family in the first place.

No idea of this was helpful, but just thoufht I’d share!
