Hello, it is me, TellJannel, here to tell you some tips on what you should do to relax without the children being around.  Some parents or moms are not sure what to do, when they do not have the kids around or while they are sleep.  

Tip#1 Grab a glass of wine (tip for ages 21 and up)

Tip#2 Light a candle

Tip#3 Get the remote, if you want to watch tv in peace

Tip#4 Get a sofa and a cozy blanket

Tip #5 Dim the lights and relax

Some people try and use this time to clean up and cook.  As parents, we all need time to wind down and relax.
