Tips for getting passion back into busy life with wife.?

I have been married for four years. We have two children ages 3 and 5. I work m-f 7:30-4:00, she works 12:00-11:30 f-m. She is also going to school on Thursday nights. The only people we trust to watch the kids are my parents that live about 30 mi away. right now we don’t have a lot of money to play with, it all goes into bills and necessities. I love my wife and she says she loves me but there is no time for passion. Even when she doesn’t have to work she has to get up usually at 6 in the morning to take care of the kids. I have treid to set up “dates” but so far everytime I do she has a paper or someother school related activity. Am I wrong for wanting time with her alone during this busy time? We don’t trust daycare or random babysitters. Should I just stop trying until she is done with school and her schedual slows down or keep bring the issue up? Please only honest answers.

Something has got to give or it will be your relationship. Surprise her on her day off and take the kids to the parents house. Communication and a good heart to heart is in order and the double surprise is that it creates intimacy. And women need that for great sex.

Good luck. (oh, and see what you can do to negotiate some of these issues before they strain you both too far)
