Hubby recently told me we really need to go on a vacation alone again. I couldn't agree more. I think back to this trip in April 2010, just the two of us, kids at home with Grandma and Grandpa, and I remember how peaceful it had been. So relaxing. Just us...recharging.
I have days too where I wish I could just go away by myself or a few days...no one asking me to do this or that, no household chores, no responsibilities...a few days to be completely selfish and worry about no one but me. I never used to think I could take a solo Disney trip....but I so totally think I would love it. Taking time to explore the things only I want to do. No one asking me to hurry so we can go do something. Being able to just sit and relax if I want, when I want.
It's been a rough few months around here and some days the stress just gets to me. Wish i was in Disney!
I understand feeling the need to be in the Parks, every day I wish I was there. But so far I've never gone alone, and I'm not sure I could. My wife and I have traveled without the kid one time, and we enjoyed it, but I still felt a little guilty.
ReplyDeleteI suppose there will come a time when I will have to make the trip alone, but I'm not looking forward to it.
But till then any time together in the parks is what I'm looking for, cause that's what I love.
Honestly, I never feel guilty leaving my kids. They need to learn independence from us and we need time alone to reconnect as married people. And you just can't do that with kids around. I LOVE our family trips to Disney- they're a great chance for us to bond as a family. But me and my husband need time alone too...one night or 5. :)
