Let's talk about this whole 'divide and conquer' thing.

You know the drill...

You take the boys to soccer. She takes the girl to dance.

You handle Costco. She does Target.

Super efficient, right?

But hang on.

What are we actually conquering?

Because it feels like we're just... dividing.

Yeah, the errands get done faster.

Kids make it to practice on time.

Everyone's checking their boxes.

But think about it.

When's the last time you all hit Costco together?

Made those weekend errands an adventure?

Let the kids see mom and dad actually doing life as a team?

Funny thing about efficiency:

It's stealing your family stories.

Those random moments that stick.

The inside jokes that become family legend.

Maybe crushing that to-do list isn't the win we think it is.

Maybe slow and together beats fast and apart.

Sometimes inefficient is better than alone.
