Funny how things can change so quickly. This time last year I had pretty much cleared my way out of Corporate America. I left with no regrets. I left behind people I worked with for close to a decade. I miss most of them, and hope they are doing well. Do I miss Corporate America? Take a look at tonight's photo and you tell me.

A year later, I'm living in another country - married to someone I never thought would give me the time of day (she's way smarter and talented than me - it took a lot of nerve for me to even send her an email) - and I'm a father again (I couldn't break my girl streak, but I wouldn't have it any other way - Baby Mae is just so sweet and wonderful).

As challenging as I found Corporate America to be, it was nothing compared to being a stay-at-home parent. Damn - it's hard work. No sick days. No ducking out early on Friday. You get a performance review every day - children tend to let you know how you're doing - without hesitation and with complete honesty. No Corporate America sugar coating BS. I like it that way. As a result, I've learned so much about myself over the last year - I like that, too.

Who knows what I'll be doing this time next year, but I'm sure I'll have fun getting there.
