same here. My HS GFs dad was terrifying. Was one of those big arse farmers who always wore double denim. I was still climbing through her bedroom window at night.

I have been out with it.

I mean emotional comings in the future. Not anything specific.

Our journey to parenthood wasn't the typical road, so that feeling when first finding out was a little different. Nervous, scared, but hopeful and excited.

Some thoughts for after the little one is here...

Put your phone down and just be in the moment more often. You're going to take more pictures of them in their first few years of life than you've had taken of you from birth until now.

Kids get sick. It's going to freak you out and worry you, but it's a part of life.

You know your kid better than anyone else outside of the other parent. If you feel like something's wrong, don't let the experts blow you off; advocate for your child.

Bottom line…if you love your kid unconditionally and make them a priority, everything will take care of itself.

Make no mistake, you will likely worry excessively over every single detail of their lives. Even over the most trivial of things. Most of the time, after the fact, they’ll make you feel silly for worrying in the first place. And you’ll be proud of them. Eventually the pride overtakes the worry…and that is a powerful thing.

My wife became a stay at home mom and we’re completely dependent on my job which I suppose is pressure.


This is the pressure I feel now most. But I also enjoy my job, so that helps.

However, there are plenty of other beatings in store. Stand it like a man, and give some back.
