Do away for a few days then come back and get the kids and take them!! lol whatcha think??

Answer 1

Mamax3, I think that it's your husband and your honeymoon and the kids should be staying with grandparents, aunts or someone whom you trust.  You have the rest of your life to share with the kids but only one big honeymoon for the two of you.  So go away and don't worry about the kids.  Certainly they will probably be lonely for the first day or so but then will probably be glad that you have gone as they will be having fun and doing things that you may not allow them to do.  Have fun and best of luck.

Answer 2

Its a honeymoon not a vacation. You are making memories with your husband and it is inappropriate for kids to come with. Plan a seperate vacation entirely with the kids and you in a few months.

Answer 3

You will never be able to be with your kids every day for all of their lives.  Maybe now is the time to start weaning them from you; not only will it help them as they grow older, but it will make it easier for you when one of them goes to a week camp, or spends the weekend at a friend's house.  If you really believe that they will be that upset, make a point to call them once a day and let them know you love them, miss them, and that you can't wait to see them.  If you won't be able to call them, arrange so that each day you are gone, a pre-written letter is given to them; and in the letter, write something special for the each of them.  They will be okay without you, and you WILL be okay without them.

You said you know that you all need time apart, so why are you ignoring that?  I don't mean to sound harsh in any of this, I'm just trying to be rational for you.  You'll only have this honeymoon once, but you'll be able to go on tons of family vacations and spend all of that special time together.  My advice: don't take the kids on the honeymoon with you.
