I just returned from a business trip away. The trip was also going to give me some alone time to relax without worrying about parenting duties. This trip however helped me come to the realization that fatherhood is something that is permanently wired in you.
I have thought in the past about my single life, a time I was only responsible for myself and how wonderful things were without the pressure of raising a family. I remembered how I could do whatever I wanted when I wanted to do it without concern for another person. Perhaps some Dads might want that back. Strange enough when I was alone on this trip I didn't know what to do with myself and did not feel complete. I missed my wife and my boys more than I thought I would. I thought I would cherish the alone time. While some time is nice I need my family to make me whole. I'm happy to be home.
