Balancing Family Life
October 8, 2012 – 11:24 am
Yesterday, my son says, “Dad, if I get up and pee every night, does that mean I am a “Mock-Turtle.” After processing what he was trying to say for a moment, I replied, “No, you’re not a pretend turtle because you pee at night. You just need to stop drinking water before you go to sleep. And the word is “nocturnal.”
My daughter chimes in to my wife that she was very sad because “Daddy’s travel se
ason was beginning.” Now, I’m migratory?
Too many NatGeo documentaries, lol.
It’s these precious stories that I miss when I depart. I’ll never get them back. If I miss one, it is forever gone. My effort and expertise are nothing, compared to the time that I lose with them.
I love my job. I wouldn’t want to do ANYTHING else in the world than helping people. But I hate leaving my family at home.
Love you so much. ♥
