Stress, how to handle it?

Don't you just love stress? 

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend out in Springfield, Mo this weekend. We stayed in an hotel, went to The Academy Sports store, Bass Pro, and of course the Battlefield Mall. =0) So today I have been cleaning and working around the house, just to get things back in order. 

Responsibility, how do you handle another persons irresponsibility or lack of respect? Seems like I was raised wrong. That song, "first comes love, then comes marriage" was obviously from a far way time period. Seems like now its the kids that come first before a relationship is even evolved. I know that everyone is different and what works for one may not work for another, however, I know a good foundation needs to be laid before anything else. 

And FAMILY? What does family mean to you? I love my family. I know that people have different "family structures" but if someone put so much effort into you that it strained his own relationship with his WIFE and then you never have "time" for him because of your flavors of the week, then how do you think that makes him feel? One day, he wont there to pick up you up off the ground, but then again that's what all your friends are for. Who needs him anyway. I will tell you who does. ME. We have been through so much over the passed 6 years that its crazy to look back and see how far we come. I love him will all my heart and I am not going anywhere and I know neither is he.

How do you politely say "listen, its time to grow up. we have own stresses to deal with, we don't need you causing any more for us."

We are trying so hard to have a family of our own....we just wanna feel complete. Hear the little feet running through the house, getting woke up because of monsters under the bed or bad dreams. I want to hear laughter. I want to feel the unconditional love of a child. I want to be called MOMMY and I want to lay our bundle of joy on my husbands chest and watch them sleep. =)
