    I'm in the same boat as you. My daughter is 18 months, and my son is 6 months. As tough as it may be sometimes, nothing makes me happier than seeing my kids smile

    Nothing wrong with taking a pause to recover and refocus. In a strange sense it's good that you are struggling with the work/life balance. It tells us that you are passionate about both! Nothing changes your life quite like children. :-) Congratulations on Amber and Jasper! ❤️

    Enjoy being a dad, take your time and don’t waste any. Kids will always remember what they did and who was around and not the material things they had. Great vid

    Dude! I feal ya, At one point it was just me and my Son, then I met my partner and she brought her two with her. Few years later BAM! SUPRISE TWINS!! We sold my small condo and bought a 160 year old home moving from the big city into a small town and its beautiful. Having so many little ones instantly changed our perspective on life and the value of family. Congrats on the family !!

    Man, this video couldn’t have come at a better time. As I write this, my son is 9 months old and we’re thinking about having another soon. My mental health has been a roller coaster of ups and downs this past year, especially when it comes to work & family balance and the identity issues that come with it. I resonated with so much of this video (even down to catching every cold my son’s had!). Thanks for taking time to make this and remind me some of this struggle is just part of the journey to becoming a father. ❤️

  • @DamonStangherlin
    @DamonStangherlin 2 года назад +2

    This was great, I really appreciate the reflection! It's ridiculous how fast two years go past, and to watch how your family growns and how you go about the balance. Thanks for taking the time to make this great vid🤙🏻

    It is good to see you all alive and well. With Covid still around many people go back to work and start catching all kinds of nasty bugs. So many of my colleagues have been ill lately. I keep wearing masks when we all meetup and I keep my distance. So far so good, but with young children it is a whole other story. Our oldest daughter works at a kindergarten, she was ill for months. Covid, flu, and sneezing for weeks. We kept our distance and helped them by getting groceries and bring those to their house.
    I hope, some day soon we will all go back and make new stuff. Today my week of 24/7 shift ended and I decided to take the afternoon off. Go hiking on an island and bring my camera gear. A start after a very long pause. Baby steps towards a the next part of life together with our little four legged friend who enjoys a day in 'the wild'.
    All the best to you all. Make stuff when you can, but keep having fun with your family!

    So cool to see you with the family again. My kids are a little older, so it was fun to remember those feelings of having toddlers again. I've come to the conclusion that the only way to grow my video stuff in any meaningful way is to include the kids in that journey. So if your pace slows down as a result of having your priorities in the right place, then keep it slow. Some opportunities only come once. Loved seeing you again.

    As a father of 5 daughters, congrats on fatherhood and while it can be overwhelming, it's great.
    I like your perspective on things, taking a break for yourself, and taking care of your family and career.
    As a longtime viewer (since the GH5 came out) - I'm stoked to see you post more because it's not just about the videos - it's like you're this long time friend I know (though you have no clue who I am) - and it's just that nice warm feeling to see your face. :)
    So selfishly, it's awesome to see you back :)

    Thanks for sharing , great seeing how the kids are coming along! Prioritise and enjoy. We have three boys, the first two only 13 month apart. With them now being 17, 16 and the wee one 6 I can attest to time passing in the blink of an eye. Each stage is amazing, and yes at times parenthood is unfathomable 😂. For sure I’ve learned more about myself and the world through them than any job… great to see you back on.

    Life is better when you have Kids! Lovely episode Levi! I have to say having kids has enriched my life more than anything else. I really had no idea how crazy the journey would be but now, looking back having two young adults launched into their own independent lives, I'm just stunned by all of it. You four have so much in front of you. Congratulations on surviving the first two years. Best Health!

    I think that it is great that a lot of fathers are thinking about not missing out on their kids lives. I for sure have limited my "career" so i could be home. But unfortunitly i still have been gone a lot, and some of that is doing videos on the side/youtube. keep life in perspective. 1. God, 2. Wife, 3. Kids, 4 everything else.
