Finding "balance" in life is what most people struggle with most often, I think. Having nice things, or striving to have them, causes us to have to often work longer hours to attain them. Our personal lives suffer because of it, and we start questioning if we're neglecting our families. It's a vicious circle. I think you just do your best Bob. Your kids and wife know how hard you work for them, and they will always know how much you love them. You're a good man, and a good father, and the fact that you're questioning it, shows just how important your family is to you. Finding time for yourself is extremely important to feeling fulfilled though. Was glad to hear you were able to get out and decompress. I work hard, but my family has always been number one, even if we have to pass on finer things that we'd like. I live by the motto my father taught me. He said," I've never judged a man's success by the thickness of his wallet. A man's true success comes in the love he gets from his family." Kids grow way too damn fast, enjoy them while you can, and take care of yourself too! You'll be fine buddy! Wish you the best!
