How do couples deal with working different shifts?

My husband and I work different shifts so we don't need a sitter for our 3 girls. That part works out great but it leaves little ';family time'; for all of us to do things together. How do others deal with this problem?How do couples deal with working different shifts?
Communication is the key. Phone calls, emails. Leave little notes around for each other. Do nice things for each other.(small things matter) When you are together, even though you may be tired, spend some time together without the kids. Go out to dinner, or have a bath together, or go for a walk. Dont lose touch with each other emotionally.


Best of luck
