andy, have you ever been able to arrange for 2 of your kids to stay over friends houses and maybe a family member to come over and be with son so you and wife could take in a walk, a movie, a dinner? does your school system offer after hours care, does the state have any program? can you take your wife to lunch on your lunch break?

i have a 2o month old and i am so lucky to have a mil who comes once a week so h and i can go to therapy. we also try to have her come an extra night a month so we can go out on a date.

thank you for your kind post on my thread. i wish i could help you in some way. lisa
