		<description><![CDATA[Thank you Heather and Whitney for this article, I think I&#039;ll get my partner to read it as well. We certainly don&#039;t have the same relationship as we did before Alera came along (my daughter) and we&#039;re definitely in a &#039;rookie relationship!&#039;

Thanks again,
Andy]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I like tip #3. We always try get our babysitter to come at 5:30 for 4 reasons:
1. the kids get used to other people caring for them.
2. sitter is more likely to clean up the &#039;making dinner&#039; mess if she made it.
3. I can be more relaxed if I get to skip the dinner prep.
4. Now that I have kids, I always want to eat dinner at 6 ;-)]]></description>
