Firstly, we realized that watching was an escape for us from dealing with each other. Instead of building our relationship, and dealing with our personal issues, we escaped to watching. We thought at the time that we were spending time with each other, but it was merely spending time next to each other. After stopping, we found ourselves suddenly getting into deeper and more honest conversations with each other, our bond grew stronger, and my respect for my husband grew so much.
Lastly, I changed as a mother and house keeper. We used to go to sleep so late (OMG! Is it 3AM already?!), and my kids and house were naturally affected. My house was always a wreck, and I would snap too quickly on my kids. They did not deserve a mother like that. Now, I became so much more patient, enjoyed my kids so much more, and got much more done in the house.
