RE: G-dog's weekend-engagement topic week 2 [40 hive in prize money!]

in OCD4 years ago (edited)

After all these month’s of working from home, just around the time the lockdown likely will be lifted in the Netherlands, I will become a father and likely waste that precious built up energy in just a few days and start longing for the return of that boring time when my life was still quiet and peaceful.

Then after realization has dawned on me that this baby is going to stay in my house for the next 20 years at least, I will surrender to the responsibility and take him outside for walks, to see family and other things that babies need.

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

Being a Father is incredibly rewarding ((and expensive!)) is utterly the best job in the world!!! ((except for being paid to be a pizza and whisky taster))

There will be times you will really wish for the boring days... especially at 3 till 5 am! But the amazing times willtotally make it all so worth it 🙂

Yup remember the at least part of that statement... I currently have a 20 and 28 year old at home, showing no signs they want to leave and join the paying for stuff world of living in their own home ((Secretly I love it though! But do not tell them...))

The greatest adventure in the world awaits

I’ve heard that said before and I’m quite sure that I will feel the same. I really look forward to it.

I can imagine that it’s nice to have your children still at home even though the oldest is already 28.

Perhaps, 28 years from now I will be able to say the same? We’ll see.

Truthfully it's exactly the same as when they are tiny. Some days you are so utterly grateful and thankful they are still close, safe and living at home...

Other days you wish they would join the next mission to Mars!!!

I guess we humans are not perfect and we all have our moments, right? 🙂

I don't think I actually said Congratulations in advance but I'm certain you knew I meant it lol.

Haha, yes indeed. Family is sometimes the best thing in the world and sometimes...

You choose your friends, but your not your family. They are just there, which is really good. With all their faults and failures I do still love my (extended) family, because they are my family and I belong with them. We all need to belong.
