“You never want to work at the same time because not only is it important to be there for the kids, it’s important for us because I think it keeps us completely and totally centered,” Krasinski explained.

“The kids will ask, ‘What? Are you going out?’ And it’s like, ‘Yeah, it’s the first time in four months. Thanks.’ When we go out on a date, it’s usually dinner and catching up, because strangely enough, that’s something you don’t always get a chance to do.”
