[quote=Anonymous]It gets better. That first night is hard! Surely you've had nights off from your kids before, right? You need to come up with some routines for the kid-free nights to keep you busy and active. My daughter typically spends Monday and Wednesday nights at dad's house, so I found yoga classes on each night. I also have certain meetings on Monday nights. Wednesday nights have become a fun night to see a few of my friends; my friends know to text me if they want to get out and be social on a Wednesday. Those nights are also good for yardwork or binge-watching shows that are inappropriate for kids. They're great for eating stuff the kids don't like. (Thai or Indian, in my case.) So you just need to reframe this from "Mom is so sad that the kids are off at the Jerk's house" to "Awesome night "off"! woohoo!"[/quote]
