The TriDad Life

Dear Beanpod,

Things are coming together. All the painting is done for your nursery, and now we put in the first piece of furniture! Little by little, we’re getting ready for you.

In one of my last notes, I was mentioning some of the conflicting feelings I’ve been having knowing that I’m entering a new reality with your arrival, leaving something that I can’t go back to. I’m still there, but the picture is staring to get clearer day by day.

An old friend of mine reached out to me to congratulate me on the news that you are coming. As a father himself, he offered me this advice about being a Dad, “Everyday is a challenge, but it takes a single second each day to make it all worth it.” What a beautiful thought.

I don’t know yet what that feels like, but I look at this chair in the empty room and I can see it, I can almost feel it. I know when I see you, it will all come together.

See you soon.

Love,

Your Dad
