Just used my paternity leave and it was everything

Got 8 weeks off for my third kid and man I'm going to miss this. Woke up with baby in the morning, got kids to school, came back and had time for my wife and the newborn without anyone needing anything from me work wise. Now I'm dreading Monday because the real world starts again and I know the first month back is going to be chaos. Anyone know how to ease back into work without losing your mind? My company let me do 2 weeks part time first which helps but still nervous.

That's incredible you got that time. With three kids you earned it. The morning routine with the baby while the other two are at school sounds like the perfect balance of chaos and peace.

Eight weeks sounds amazing, man. Enjoy every second of it because yeah, that goes fast. The school runs and baby time in the morning is the stuff you'll actually remember.
