One woman ponders what life and marriage will be like once all the kids are gone. The thought is both exciting and daunting. -
. Our three children have been our joy and our priority. When the kids were little, my husband put in long hours working full-time during the week while I was primarily in charge of the kids and our home. On weekends, we divided up responsibilities and conquered — driving the kids to activities, helping with homework, going to school events, etc. Our “me” time and “we” time have been severely limited.
I've heard people say that when the kids leave, you can do things you couldn't do before, like walk around naked. Frankly, that issomething I see happening . My children's presence in the house is not the only reason I have chosen to stay clothed. Have the kids become a conversation crutch? Should I start reading up on sports and finance so that I have more topics to draw from?Before kids , my husband and I used to have an absolute blast together. We were young and in love. Now we are old and love each other, but with less energy. I am looking forward towithout having to plan activities around the kids. We like to go bike riding and hiking — activities that have gotten pushed to the side by the kids’ schedules. I think I'll cook more.
