Where you go also matters.

Brett Young – date nights :41

“Where we’re at in our relationship and in our life with young kiddos and stuff, I think the one thing that kind of takes a back seat is checkin’ in with each other and talking. Something that you just don’t make time for because once the kids go to bed, you’re ready to sleep. But as a young parent, you have an inner monologue all the time of, whether it’s things that you’re enjoying about having these beautiful young children or if it’s things that you’re frustrated about, or whatever you’re going through. You kind of keep it to yourself, not because you’re not willing to talk about it, but just because you’re going 100 miles an hour. And so, I think it’s important to check in and kind of pull off the band-aid for a second and be vulnerable with each other. And I think it’s important to know how each other’s feeling. And so, I think, you know, don’t go to a noisy restaurant, don’t go to a movie, go somewhere where you can sit and reconnect and check in with each other and you’re able to have good conversation.”
