Rekindling the romance

It was my 5 year anniversary last week and I had the opportunity to spend 2 days alone with my husband and I learned a very interesting thing, I actually love him and even better I like him.  I was so scared to go home because I knew that the minute we walked in the house that we would go back into our parenting roles and the stress would resume.

Ha, I was right, we were back for 10 minutes and I felt as if the entire 2 days was zapped out of me.  The question that remains is how do you rekindle the romance?  I could say date nights?  We do those and I am still tired and stressed about the day so trying to unwind while recognizing I might have to get up in the middle of the night just puts a damper on it.  Is the only answer going away without the children? I sure hope not, lets find out if anyone else has an idea.

Does anyone have any good ideas on how to rekindle the romance?
