From Party Guy to Dad - Can't Believe How Much I've Changed

M

Jun 111 min read

Used to be out 3-4 nights a week, sleeping till noon on weekends, spending money like it grew on trees. Now I'm the guy meal prepping on Sunday and getting excited about a good night's sleep. My wife jokes that I've become someone's father and I'm like yeah no shit that's literally what happened lol. I do miss the spontaneity sometimes but honestly the thought of missing one of my kids' moments makes me feel sick so I guess I'm not that guy anymore.

The Sunday meal prep life is underrated. I do the same thing and it's wild how much more present I am with the kids during the week when I'm not stressed about dinner. Sounds like you're building something solid here.

Man, this hits different when you're co-parenting. I went through a similar shift after my kids came into my life - suddenly those late nights don't matter as much as showing up for them on their schedule. That meal prep mentality is real.
