"When you have kids..." and any sentence after resonates with all parents and 0% with non-parents. I had a 24 day traveling to and back for work recently. Wanted to only put my wife out of her work for a day, boy was I tired the next morning...but "such is life when you're a father".
But one day, they'll be older and off doing their own things nearly outside of your orbit, and you'll reminisce about waking up early, strapping them into the car seat, watching them run around the playground.
And somehow you'll completely gloss over how much you just wanted to sleep in that day...

You are a wonderful father -- and I'm glad you got to go on such a wonderful trip.
thank you for saying that!
No rest for the weary.
