Anyone else find the last hour of their evening is taken up by emails/cleaning up their last tasks. Since my first son was born, I have tried to get out of the office earlier, only to find I do MORE work at home after he goes to bed ...

When my daughter was pretty new, couple of months, she'd only go to sleep if I held her. I got pretty good at typing lying down with her stretched across my forearms.

I am sure you have some great photos of this (or at least I hope you do)

My wife and I keep on having [hand|head] moments when we miss these photo ops

I'm just the opposite. Work doesn't even cross my mind after I run out of the office shouting "Freedom!" My manager once asked why I didn't see a change to a meeting time he made late the night before; I just laughed. Why on earth would I have seen it?

We need more people like you. Some how we are lead to believe that its normal to get a fixed pay check while working uncountable number of hours while giving loyalty for free.

No.

We need more people who cannot stop thinking about their work, because of how much they love it.
