A date night

My husband and I had a nice evening out, thanks to our trusty sitter. Being able to have an intimate conversation and look into each others' eyes fully, intently listening, felt really good.   Communicating about our day, our feelings without our focus being diverted is a necessary component to a healthy marriage and family.  We both feel more connected and happy.  It's easy to put this off, to get lazy and not feel inspired to connect.  It was also just as easy for us to go out and have some time to ourselves.
