I asked a new Dad the most surprising thing he found after being a parent for six months.
“It’s easier than I expected.”
He quickly pointed out a bunch of reasons why he is fortunate to say that. Mom and baby are healthy. Family is nearby to help out. Healthy marriage. Financial security.
“But….we just keep it simple and don’t overcomplicate things” he said.
Maybe it’s worth asking….how much harder do we make it for ourselves by making it harder for ourselves?
