Of course I only have one child who is 4.5 months old, so I don't know if possible with 4 kids. I think you have to give your children the love an attention they need but you also need to give your husband the attention he needs. I know it is hard but you have to find a way to do it. Sometimes you need to find an activity the children can do where you can watch them but also listen to your husband. And if you can't listen to him that night sometimes leaving a note for him to see in the morning, telling him how much you love him and appreciation everything he does for you and the family can help. It will be interesting to see if I can do this as we have more children.Natashanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108194060749821039.post-19403537406952808312010-10-22T14:04:39.993-07:002010-10-22T14:04:39.993-07:00I don't side with either guest.

Sometimes I just have no choice though because the children do have immediate needs that cannot be put on the back burner. <br />We try to fix it by going on occasional date nights, but that doesn't always work either. <br />I totally get where you're coming from.Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818022843545001748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108194060749821039.post-66448292358404398962010-10-20T16:08:34.303-07:002010-10-20T16:08:34.303-07:00I side with the special guest too.

He will also be happier to help out at home. Inturn the wife will feel better about herself, maybe get alittle help at home, and be a better mother. If the parents put the kids first then they slowly lose touch with each other and just become room mates raising kids, when that happens parents begin to fight and the every one suffers. It is really hard when the kids are small but so worth it in the long run.Carols blogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630330852860823401noreply@blogger.com
