Have you ever gone on a vacation with your spouse and leave the kids with a Bubbe and Zaide/ Aunt and Uncle etc…?
We did it four times in our twenty years of marriage.
The first time, we left the kids with my in-laws for three days and went to the Poconos mountains.
The second time, my in-laws took the kids and sent us to Israel for ten days to visit with my sister-in-law and brother-in-law.
The third and fourth times, we took advantage of the fact that all the kids were in sleep away camp and went to Niagara Falls and St. Thomas (respectively).
