You'll do just fine. I'm new at this as well, so I'm learning as I go. It's tough, but workable. I have a 2 1/2 year old little guy and one on the way, so I'm just learning the ins and outs of it all. I just got back from a 4 day and my wife picked me up at the airport. It made it worth it when I spotted them from the escalator and she couldn't contain him enough. She finally let him go when I was near the bottom and he screamed running through people yelling "daddy"...it made me melt. He about tackled me while holding my face with his hands.

It sounds like you've got a great supporting wife (she must be if you've chosen aviation) and that's a huge key in all of this. Take the time to learn your bidding system and that will also help out a ton.

I wish you the best of luck in all of this...
