Celebrating Valentine's Day
Filed in archive Parenting on January 30, 2007
Celebrating valentine's Day, if you have kids, is a challenge. But, if there's a will, there's a way.
The obvious way to "get rid" of the kids for the night while you celebrate is to ask for the help of Grandma and Grandpa. Perhaps, the kids can stay with them for a night or two.
If your kids are old enough, you can talk to your friends who are also parents and organize a little Valentine's party for the kids. Although, you may need to ask Grandma and Grandpa or any of their date-less Aunt and Uncle to supervise the party. Or, if you are lucky, you can ask a trusted babysitter to hold the fort while you are gone.
Should any of the two above be impossible to arrange, you can always just put the kids to bed a bit earlier than usual. You can then proceed to spend a romantic evening at home.
Like what I said before... remember that besides being parents, you are both individuals who love each other. Forget the names Mom and Dad and concentrate on Me and You.
Have a nice Valentine's Day celebration with your loved ones!

Remember the old days when people would listen to recordings together or read poetry? I guess it's not practical in today's world, but it sounds like a nice getaway to me. We don't have family nearby and we haven't found a good sitter, so my husband and I have vowed to make time at least one night a week--after the kids are asleep--doing something completely relaxing. We like watching HGTV together or reading to each other. We both love books. For valentine's day last year, we ordered a personalized romance novel from www.yournovel.com and read pages to each other. Giggle giggle...we actually acted some parts out, and it was so much fun! Who says you have to go out to have a good (and romantic) time!?
