We are at the other end of the "baby" process as our 12 year old is starting to be away from home overnight occasionally. What do we do on those rare occasions? We decide on something special for dinner and spend time shopping and preparing and cooking together at home in peace. I'll mix up a couple of martinis. We'll enjoy a quiet dinner and then watch a movie on DVD before doing some other adult activity.
A couple of times when we had the day free, we went down to Atlantic City, gambled some, had a nice lunch, browsed some shops and came home. We just did that a week ago Friday and it was a very nice day.
BTW, congrats on having one of the kids coming home. I know that's a big step.
