You won't believe how happy I am to see such healthy parenting. The popular notion follows the kid-centric approach. But it's hugely about parents too. If parents deny their needs or wishes for a long time, it builds quite resentment, victim mentality and above all, anxious attachment. I've seen my mom, so many moms bringing up "I've done this this this", at the slightest friction with their kids (because mostly, moms have to sacrifice, or they choose to sacrifice the most). And it doesn't only damage the relation between the parents and kids, but damage the kids too. So the only way to be a healthy parent and raise a healthy kid, who grows up to be a healthy individual, partner and/or parent, is to bring a balance. It can be in the form of prioritising me time, or time with your partner. As an individual, you have the rights to prioritise your needs too, as your kids have the rights to have their needs met. Soooo happy for you guys. ♥️

I find it very tough being without the kids but it’s needed sometimes. Hope you’re having fun, it looks amazing. You took the dogs too?

Sometimes everyone needs time alone with their partner ❤️
