[quote=Anonymous]Our kids are 5 years apart, so there’s a lot of divide and conquer. And that results in neither of us getting much free time because the older one typically had an activity that competed with nap time for the younger, so one person stayed home with the younger and the other ran the older one. So that’s been an adjustment. And even now that the younger one is 4 and can come more places, it’s not fun or really fair for him to watch a full soccer game twice a weekend, so what used to be a little downtime for the parent who stayed home while he napped is now gone too. I think it makes us shorter with each other and the kids and we’ve recognized it and are trying to correct, but there are only so many hours in the day, so only so much we can do at this point.
