WOH and sleeping issues
| Sun, 05-22-2005 - 10:34am |
We were at a dinner party last night at the home of one of dh's coworkers. They have 2 boys, 6 and 4. They have a bunch of sleeping issues (kids 'scared' at night, won't fall asleep in their own bed, won't go to bed without mom or dad cuddling them, etc.) The mom blames herself because since she works all day and misses them so much she tends to cuddle with them late at night and they fall asleep in a pile on the bed all together. She said that if she SAH, they wouldn't have the same issues.
I sah. For us, bed time is a rigid, welcome respite at the end of the day. Dh has no desire to keep them up either, lol.

Whaaaa? I didn't say I'll be an "anything." Least of all a SAH-anything.
Why are you assuming that I'll always be AH? I certainly don't. I have no earthly idea where you're coming from, or where you get that idea. I don't know if I'll be AH 6 months from now, let alone for the next 11 years.

I guess I'm the only one here who has no clue whether I'll be living geographically close to either of my sons.

I think one can still really enjoy things like travel with children. I knew that once I had kids, I would be more hesitant to travel to places where there might be political unrest, health concerns, or other issues. But we never intended to stop traveling completely-just change the places we went and how we traveled, making it more child friendly.

This conversation is starting to remind me of the movie *Parenthood*, where Steve martin is complaining about how difficult it all is, and the wife says its like a rollercoaster and that
