I travel quite a bit for work, and my kids are 1 and 4. Sometimes I can’t wait to get away from the house of toddler chaos and get to a bed where I can just sleep blissfully alone. But once I see their faces on video chat from my hotel room I miss them so much and just want to go home.
Give me another week at home however and I’m itching to get out of there again. Anyone else feel this?
I’m not travelling but when my oldest (3 yo) is visiting the in laws for a week I feel torn in two halves. On the one hand side I indulge the peace and quiet but on the other hand side I feel lost and the house too empty.
It’s really crazy and I’d never thought it’d be possible before I had kids.
