I love this. I would love to travel with my husband again, just the two of us. We met during our travels too, so it is something special for us.
I am not sure if I'm ready yet to travel together with my husband without the kids since my youngest is only two. I'm going off for the first time soon for two weeks without them, and I take solace that they have their papa with them.
How do you all do that? And at what age are the kids when you all first try it?
That’s so special that you two met traveling and have that as a bond between you! I love that!
I sincerely hope that your upcoming travel goes well and that it can provide reassurance for you and your husband to do it together soon 🤍
Our daughter was 18 months old when we went on our first trip together post kids. We live within 35 minutes of both our parents so our girls see their grandparents a lot which helps when we travel on our own because they have these really special bonds with their grandparents and love going to their houses, so that makes it a lot easier. Knowing we have people who we trust and who our girls trusts and love is a huge reason we can even travel without them to begin with. We also demand a lot of pictures/updates and phone calls just to ease our anxieties and see/know they are doing okay!! It takes a lot of trust and handing over control to someone else to care for your kid which is honestly the hardest part but it also offers A LOT of growth.
At the end of the day, every couple is different. It worked for us to start when she was 18 months but it may make sense for you guys at a later age, and that’s okay! As long as you two are prioritizing it at some point and hold each other accountable to prioritizing it, that’s what matters.
