I used to tell my wife the same stories when she would leave me home with the kids. I've come to realize that my lying was based in my insecurity as a new father. Now that I've been at it for nearly six years, I'm more than willing to tell her when I'm struggling. Great read as always!

Yeah, I feel that! I used to get that too when I was new to this. These days, it's that I don't want to stress her out.
