  1. Keep Them Informed
    If you manage to sneak off for a few nights of solid sleep, it’s only fair that the partner left behind keeps you updated on all the chaos unfolding at home. After all, you need to know what you’re missing!
  2. Creative Annoyances
    Watching your partner’s traits emerge in your kids is heartwarming—until you realize the less desirable traits are often the most amusing.
  3. Freedom Calls
    Once you have kids, you quickly learn that having fun doesn’t always require your partner. So when you see an opening, take it! Run free!
  4. Hope vs. Reality
    There are times when your partner raises your hopes only to crush them. But, let’s be honest, if you don’t intervene, your kids might show up at the zoo in costumes from the dress-up bin. Who really cares anyway?
  5. The Truth Hurts
    When you’re co-parenting, you might find yourself acting like a child. Just saying it like it is.
  6. Jot It Down
    If you enjoy never finishing a conversation with your spouse, then having kids is definitely for you.
  7. The Cost of Date Night
    While maintaining a regular date night sounds great, have you checked the prices of babysitters lately? Sometimes it’s cheaper to just feed the kids and pretend they’re not there. How romantic!
  8. Social Life? What Social Life?
    Your childless friends might be heading to that craft beer festival you’ve been dying to attend, but you’re tied up with Maddy and Kale’s birthday extravaganza. Gluten-free cupcakes for everyone!
  9. Simplify the Explanation
    You’ll need to explain things in terms your partner can grasp.
  10. Unified Front
    Finding common ground on the essentials will take you far in parenting.
  11. Less Romance
    The romance may fade a bit, but you’ll find yourself wondering where you can score a footed unicorn onesie.
