I used to align my vacation time with my kids’ holidays so we could do stuff together. Sometimes he was with us, most times not. A couple years ago, he started aligning his vacation time with mine. We’re not big vacationers, so it’s usually just doing our separate things at home with an occasional day trip. Like a week-long Saturday. lol

@JustNik yeh i think im seeing the father not doing so much trend in friends etc atm
But at least hes aligned now. Glitter and i have always taken the same time off be it pottering around or going away

@Gangstress I think it’s easier for men to feel excluded sometimes. The mom will often naturally take a dominant role with the children so for the men, it’s probably a bit like that jump rope where you have to find the right time to jump in. I’ve seen a lot of dads jump in readily when the mom is less interested.

I’ve always felt you two have such a lovely thing going there. Not a lot of taking for granted. 😄

@JustNik yeh that does make sense to me hun. Happened with my dad too especially when younger
Haha yeh i think its coz were 2 women so its like having your lover and best mate around lol 😆 but we don't have kids so our times our own
I imagine with kids things are a lot different
