I consider my family very fortunate that my wife's part to full-time chef gig did not call her back for spring/summer events for this very reasoning. We were previously both working, but fortunately we are able to change focus and she can do activities and learning with the kids while I work 9-10 hour days remotely from my home office. A lot of our friends/acquaintances are both struggling to work gig jobs or local retail of some sort and I feel for all of them while we're in the perfect position to save, teach our children, and then still plan our downtime together. We've not had any real fighting either, it's been better than having to work from the office this entire time, but I do still miss that environment. Oh right, that and our parents and the living grandparents also live nearby.
