I take myself and our 3 kids back home to Hawaii to visit family and friends. If he can take a vacation he comes along, but usually has to come home earlier and we stay longer.... Plus, two weeks out of the year to get back to my island home is not too much to ask considering I have been dragged across the US and relocated due to his career. ....
I'm in the same boat as Ima. In a very committed realtionship, talk about marriage all the time, and within months of a ring (Ithink...hope I'm not jinxing it). Keeping my fingers crossed.
