What do you love most about being a dad?
"It makes coming home every day exciting. When Miles runs to greet me, gives me a hug, and starts telling me about his day, it resets what is important in life. There's nothing greater."

What is one thing about your life that has changed the most since becoming a dad?
"The importance of time. Before you become a parent, you think you're doing all of these really important things, and you think you're so busy. Afterwards you wonder where all that time went, and how you could have wasted it on such trivial things."

Any advice for dads-to-be?
"Prepare to have your priorities readjusted in the most dramatic way possible. And don't be afraid. We're all making this up as we go along."
