[quote=Anonymous]I think rather than focusing on talking about it and emotional conversation and connection, I would find a shared hobby or activity, ideally something you can do at home together after the younger kids are in bed. Something that is NOT TV. For us, it's board games. Having that shared hobby, talking about new games, playing together, debating strategy... it bring some just-us fun to our lives. Other suggestions - jigsaw puzzles, woodworking, sewing, painting, drawing, baking, gardening, learning to play a musical instrument, learning a foreign language, learning to dance (like the waltz or something). With older kids around, you might even be able to get out of the house, and then you could try a sport like tennis or running or hiking or something. You're past the little-littles stage (everybody can make themselves a sandwich and wipe their own butts) and you've got a little more time than you used to now - feels like the perfect time. [/quote]
