It’s been so long since me and my husband have had a date night. An actual night with a date that didn’t end with me and my husband having to pick up the kids. It was nice! We decided to go for Mexican for dinner. Food was okay but it great. Left after we where done eating made a stop to get dessert from Walmart before heading home.
Then we spend the rest of the night watching some tv and going to bed to no one waking us up till 9:30am.

The element of romance should always abide in a relationship, whether you have kids or not. It's great you were able to have a date with the busy-ness of taking care of your children.
For me, I think that a couple ought to focus extra on their relationship with each other at any stage of their life because their kids are going to leave them someday to start their own lives and it's our partners where we end up with until our moment has come - watching the kids grow into strong and responsible adults, but holding our partners' hands in our deathbed, with a final kiss to seal a lifetime of happiness with each other.

More so when you have kids parents don’t get a lot of dates when they have kids. Coupled with no kids can pretty much do as they want when they want without finding babysitters. You don’t need to focus on each other when your couple good communication is the actual key. You don’t need to spend all your time and energy on each other because you are two people and need to do things for yourself.

@ShyBear88 I agree that good communication forged under the discipline of trust and love is the key to a loving relationship, or rather, to all relationships. Couples who find that in their marriage are more likely to be happier, successful, etc. I'm not saying that couples should spend all their time and energy to each other. Couples are indeed two people becoming one in a union and they still can follow on their own interests and hobbies. So what I'm stating is that once they develop a stronger bond with each other, it automatically translates to other areas of their lives such as rearing children, financial management, among other things.
