Wow! That's one awesome article to debut your innings with. Being a parent myself, I have extra amount of admiration for folks who pursue any career particularly software engineering. I've been in the field for 16+ years and honestly things changed a lot for me after we had our son. And it was a reality check for me, to realise that my time isn't really mine after I became a parent. So, every second I got time for myself, I began to value and plan to do something productive. Even, if it's for an hour everyday. And to realise you are doing exactly the same, I am sure you'll be some force to recon with once you are ready. I wish you all the success in your journey. Just keep going and stay consistent.
