What I've lost and gained becoming a dad

Been thinking about this a lot lately. Lost: spontaneity, my social life, decent sleep, a clean car, my six pack (hello dad bod), time with my wife, hobbies, money, peace and quiet. Gained: unconditional love, purpose, patience I didn't know I had, an excuse to watch cartoons, the funniest moments of my life, a reason to actually care about my health and future, weird dad jokes that actually make me laugh. The trade feels worth it most days. Some days I still miss going to the gym without planning childcare for an hour.
