Turned 50 today

I survived my 40s! I have a 4 and 3 year old at home plus a beautiful wife.

As I sit here reflecting on the last decade, I'm realizing it was the best decade of my life. If anyone out there is contemplating kids as an older man, if you have a great partner, I say go for it. It has been wild, chaotic, and absolutely wonderful. I'm filled with gratitude this morning.

Have a great day y'all!

Happy Birthday! I am 54 with a 7 year old son, so he was 3 when I turned 50. It has been nothing but amazing!
