Let's face it. Parenting is hard, often unromantic work. Parents are easily swept up into the laundry and bill piles and swept far away from the land of poetry and romance. Enter the all-important date night. Time set aside weekly or monthly for Mommy and Daddy to reconnect, have some laughs, share some wine, end enjoy the views.
Folks around the blogosphere are digging on date night. Take a look.
1. Red W(h)ine and Boo shares scenes from a date night;
2. Never a Dull Moment talks about turning a 50's medley musical evening out into something to laugh about;
3. She Knows Best shares a great recipe for beef tacos that he can fix for her.
4. Mary Mary Quite Contrary tried laser tag with her husband. And loved it.
So there you have it. Hire a sitter and try something new. Together. These are the kinds of dates that matter more than all those first giggly ones combined.
