When Stephanie McArthur finally took a rare night off to have dinner with friends, she never expected her 7-year-old daughter Gwen would turn it into the highlight of her school essay! The story, which Gwen titled 'The Big Night,' hilariously describes how monumental it felt for her mom to be gone—even though the kids had a blast at home with dad. The essay struck a chord with parents everywhere, who shared their own stories of kids acting like a few hours away is a major event. Why do you think kids see these little moments as such a big deal? #Relationships #ParentingLife #StLouis
