How Do You Date Night? :: Date Ideas When You’re Married With Kids
Finding time to get a date night in every once in awhile is not always easy. All too often we look up from the hustle and bustle of our life to find it has been months since we’ve had quality time with our significant other. As parents, especially with little ones not yet in school, I think it is important to intentionally schedule in date nights.

We stood in line to check in and I gave a friendly half-smile/head nod to a nice couple in the waiting room.

It’s little things, like those I am listing, that can make all the difference.
