== Personal anecdotes and parenting experiences ==

* And so, then I was having some breakfast and then when Idina brought her downstairs, I just burst into tears. Right? That's not my usual way in the morning. I mean, you know, number one, yes, it's going to happen because you're a parent and it rules. Number two, you're exhausted. So, those things happen quickly and unknowingly. They just happen.
* Yeah, it was a lovely day. Very lovely. Very, very lovely. Yeah. As they get older, like, I had a great Father's Day weekend because I did nothing and everyone pretty much was working except for me. So, I just kind of chilled. So, it's very funny. All of my friends that are dads that, you know, I was talking to and they're like, Happy Father's Day. Like, you know, I'm reaching out and stuff. And I would say to them, like, what are you doing today? You know, like, people who've got older kids, you know, even like toddlers or whatever. And they're like, oh, perfect day. I'm on my own. Or like, I'm doing this thing. It's like, it's very funny that, like, it seems that once you've had the first one, then you just want peace and quiet on Mother's Day. Like, that's the best thing that could happen. But for the first one, you know, you want to be with the baby. I watched some of the race. I watched all of the race. I watched some of the golf. And like, you know, everyone started getting home about five. We had a little dinner and that was a great day. Great day. Yeah, I did. I actually, that I did have that. So I could, you know, I did, you know, took the all like the shift of, so I put like a bedtime shift kind of thing. So I could watch Formula One. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, that's right. Cause yeah, I was actually, this is one of the races that's actually much later for you. I'm normally on your schedule. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. True. I didn't think about that. Yeah. Interesting race. So we'll leave that for another day. Maybe another Lego episode in the future. Yeah. I've got some follow-up from journaling. Okay. Let's do it. Joseph wrote in and said, I find my journaling habit also critically depends on the physical location of my journal on a given day and do miss in, like I do miss or backfield days. I use key wording similar to what other people were described. I do something that was not mentioned though. I snap a photo to use as a prompt for me to fill in later on. They're automatically organized by date, readily available on multiple sync devices, and can be taken one handed without even unlocking my phone. So this is actually reminding me. So when I was, remember I said to you, I was going in and like filling in some of the baby's first days into my journal a couple of years after she was born, the way that I was remembering what I had done on those days was to look through my photo library. Yeah. Yeah. So that's good.
