Today’s A Special Occasion

Today marks the third anniversary of me being a dad. In other words, today is my son’s 3rd birthday. I’ve been thinking about how much my life has changed in the past three years as a result, and let me tell you, everything is different. My whole lifestyle and every decision I make is influenced by my role as a father.
It’s funny how a person so small in stature can possess so much power. They can dictate when you sleep, when you’re happy and sad, and whether or not you’re on time or late. Kids are a LOT of trouble, and mine is no exception. But I wouldn’t trade the experience so far for anything. Seriously, life is more complicated now, and I don’t have the freedom to just get up and go anywhere, anytime as I once did. Although it doesn’t make any sense unless you’re a parent, it’s much better now.
