Do you feel like any of this relates? If not, then I would say it's a good thing, and completely agree with jimpomer.

If it does relate, then... well I still agree with jimpomer! You can try to make the present just as enjoyable. Though sometimes that seems easier to say than do. What is it like for you?


Hmm good question. I guess maybe I feel like our lives lately are so "business" that while we do fun things with our kids and I enjoy it, there is a part of my own life that feels routine and I wish there were some more personal time for myself. One thing I always remember is that it was all about me I guess.. me having fun and doing what I wanted when I wanted. I know my kids enjoy things we do but maybe my dwelling is about me missing having that freedom and carelessness.. Before having kids and all.. I was very adventurous and active. I'll have to think about all that and get back to you.. maybe bring it up to my wife.. see if she agrees since she sees it first hand hehe.

Thanks...
