Just for Mom - Dinner and a Movie at Home

You'll have to excuse me, I had 2 hours of sleep last night and it is finally starting to catch up with me. I wouldn't want you to miss out on your "just for mom" day though.
I'll share an idea with you for a date night, that we occasionally use at my house. You could call it "dinner and a movie at home".
Fix the kids an early dinner and get them ready for bed. Let them watch a movie before they fall asleep. This should buy you a little bit of time. If you prefer, you can of course just postpone your date until you kids go to sleep.
Fix a simple meal ( one of those gourmet frozen pizzas always works for us) and open a bottle of wine. Enjoy dinner together and catch up on what's going on in your spouse's life. Then cuddle up on the couch together and watch a movie. We watched Ocean's Twelve last night and I can highly recommend it. I'll give you a review in the next couple of days.
