That's gotta be the best Tom Waits song he never wrote!
Brillocaster hit all the nails on all their heads, as did our Administrator. Nothing in life will test you like parenting, but nothing, not even an original '52 blackguard in pristine condition, can begin to touch the joy and connection to being
alive that your children will bring you. That tired cliché, "Someday we'll look back on this and laugh," applies to many of those late nights and disposing of bodily fluids. Wait until you, your wife and the kid(s) are
all sick at the same time. Talk about a party! But hey, that's what life's about, and you'll miss it when they're older and have "other things to do." Sounds as though you have plenty of love and compassion for your wife, which will undoubtedly flow to your child. Have fun!
