Track the Numbers of Your Parenting Journey

Parenting can feel overwhelming and chaotic, but it's important to slow down and take stock of the time you have with your children. Consider the numbers: you only get 18 summers at home with your kids, around 420 days before they start talking, and around 400 days before they can walk. There are limited first days of school, graduations, and times you can drive them to school. By tracking these numbers, you become aware of the limited time you have and can make the most of it.

Keeping Track of the Moments That Matter

“This whole thing can go by so fast. Because you have so much going on. Because you feel like you’re barely keeping your head above water. It’s understandable, but if you don’t slow down and wrap your head around this parenting thing, you can end up missing so much that matters.”

Ryan explains why you should pay close attention to the time you spend with you kids, and how you can make the most out of it, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
