Give Thanks: Day 15 - Alone Time

We are thankful for alone time. As parents, we love our children and enjoy spending every minute possible with our babies. But we also appreciate the occasional night out together for dinner and a movie. This doesn't mean ditching the kids every weekend so that we can live it up kid free. Those days should be well behind any parent. Parting is never easy. We still struggle with he guilt of having fun without them. BUT the occasional day alone as a couple is healthy and deserved. Then there are times when it's just better for the kiddos to be elsewhere: birthday shopping, Christmas shopping,emergency situations, funerals. We are thankful that whenever any of these times come we can leave them knowing that our babies are taken care of and having fun. They love going to Grandma's. ;)We appreciate our time out, but nothing compares to the excitement of picking our boys up and seeing those sweet smiles.
