Once you are out of the baby and toddler phase?
There was just a question posed about putting your husband/wife first or putting your children first and I wasn't sure how to answer that because right now my husband and I are both stretched to the limit just taking care of our homes and our twin 13 month olds, and preparing for another on the way.
I don't see how we could put each other first without completely neglecting our children because they need A LOT of attention.
I'm now wondering also if maybe so many of our problems right now have to do with how much energy we're putting into our kids *no choice... they really require A LOT of care if we're going to do it properly* and if we can just hang on for a few more years it will be so much better and easier, and we can reap the rewards of our well loved children with happy and well behaved kiddos, and then be able to reconnect again?
