babysitters
So Athena is over 4 months and she's never been away from me her whole life.
I know this is going to come up at some point, but still.
The hubby wants to go to a program and let somebody watch her for 4-5 hours tonight. There is a babysitting service that has bonded babysitters and they will come to your house or hotel or whatever and watch a child and are basically available almost any time. They have all gone through a background check and have had training and know infant and child CPR. It is a wonderful service really. But I don't need to go out to a program or anything else. Life is not about me anymore. I don't really care about going out anywhere because we have been married for 17 years and we basically did whatever we wanted all that time. If it was a legitimate emergency I would consider it more, but this is just for us to do a fun thing together. I can't let anyone else watch Athena! I don't want him to feel bad and I know he is a little worried about letting someone else watch her too. It's a good point that she'll most likely be asleep the whole time. But still. I am very hesitant to do this. And before you ask, there is nobody I know nearby who I would ask to watch her... that is out of the question.
What do you think, should we do it?
