As this coming wed me and my husband leave for the Bahamas for 10 days. I'm looking forward to it because we haven't had our time to our selves since we had our 3 year old little girl. The hard part is this is going to be the longest ill be away from her since she were gone and the anxiety is and emotions are kicking in.but we do need our time to enjoy and relax.he's always working he's got so much personal time he's already stopped accumulating and he has so much vacation time. It will be good for our little girl with my sister for 5 days then the other with his sister they both really love her neither 1 of them have kids they want them so it will be good for both to get a taste for what its like and good for our little girl to.I told him when we get back I want him around more he said he would take 1 vacation day a week for a month.as its emotional now but I know in the long run its good for all.

Absence really does make the heart grow fonder.

Here's to hoping the renewal of the adult bonds serves to strengthen the parental bonds. Enjoy your vacation.

Thank you.arfie I may not know you personally but I always love hearing what you have to say on here. Your filled with wisdom and sometimes I get a laugh outve you.what keeps me and husband going on not the typical nagging wife what always up his ass and I love him and he knows that and I'm the stay home mommy and cook, cleaning lady, and love every bit of it. But he knows I have my needs like being able to express my feelings to him being able to snuggle him and sex at least once a week and he does fulfill that. As well as having him around 1 extra day a week for a month when we get back.I do have my moments though where I can be a notch to him once in a while but he stays silent.

Wisdom? ? ?

I thought I was JPC. (Just Plain Crazy). Maybe 21st century wisdom is just plain crazy?

While he was still a cute neighbor, my hubby promised to be a stay-at-home father while I developed my Nobel Prize worthy science career. Ah. . . The things guys will say to get in your pants. , ,

I didn't start the stay-at-home gig until I found myself navigating the juvenile justice system with out-of-control adolescents (Now 34 & 38). The construction crews I was managing prior to that felt like a cake walk compared to full-time out-of-control adolescents. And people call this, "Not working?!?!?!?" I still have to remind myself to take off the steel-toe boots on occasion.

I am jealous. Was there for our honeymoon (16 yrs ago) and it is absolutely gorgeous and so relaxing. If I close my eyes, I can hear the reggae music and feel the warmth of the sun and the ocean breeze.... and the crystal clear water, glistening sand and so much vibrant color everywhere.... HAVE A GREAT TIME!!

PS You can always check in a few times with skype or a quick message recorded on your phone. :)

I honestly just wanna relax forget about phones or social media and other peoples drama.this time of year is when my anxiety and emotions are at my worse and knowing I've had something to look forward to it hasn't been as bad and this time is just needed with just me and my husband we haven't had anytime to just us except a night hear or there since we had our 3 year old.

I hope the Bahamas is fun! I also hope you and your husband are able to re-kindle the flame you guys had. Maybe more vacations are the key?!

Live your worries behind and enjoy your wonderful journey. As he works so hard, it would be great to encourage him somehow. Where was your honeymoon? My husband and I got married 10 years ago and we had neither honeymoon nor any wedding trip as we both worked a lot and experienced a drastic lack of finances, So one year ago we decided to have our honeymoon at least it was the best time of our marriage we both came back newlyweds from the Dominicana. And I strongly recommend you to visit the place as well. Just look at these nice pictures https://www.pinkfilm.org/puntacanaphotographer/punta-cana-wedding-resorts.
