In going through the many things about having a family that no one likes to talk about, this topic just kept coming up. It seems that this love stuff actually takes some work, huh. Go figure. No riding off in a carriage to the closing credits that begin "And they lived happily ever after...." and then that's it.
Somehow, in the task list that is daily life, our men become our business partners. "Did you pick up the dry cleaning?" "Are you taking Davie to practice or am I?" "We're out of milk." Carving out the time to keep the romance falls by the way side as the task lists seem to grow, the days get longer and we hit the pillow at night that much more exhausted.
So in this section we'll be talking about our experiences in this realm and some pretty funny stories about what we've tried to do about it.
