I've been making an effort to spend daddy Days with my kids. Every Saturday I spend time with one of my children by themselves, so they get some time with daddy by themselves.
My kids have also taken a huge interest in music and are already talking about starting a band, so I've been working hard to encourage them to practice and have fun writing little songs for their mother or me. I'm renovating the third bay in the garage into a small recording studio for the kids to just mess around in and enjoy their music even more.
The shows are almost like a vacation for me. I only plan on attending a handful and plan on going a day early and staying a day late at each one to get a little "me" time as well.
With a fourth child on the way, we're all taking what time we can now to relax.
I've even thought about getting back into music and hooking up with a local casino/nightclub band and just play for fun on the weekends for beer money and to exert some of this built up energy.
