Here's my reality: For six weeks - 36 nights - my wife has to feed, bathe, and put our two sons to bed by herself. For 36 nights, I don't get to read bedtime stories and tuck in my two boys. I am not willing to make that 54 nights.

Then don't... Who is telling you that you have to? Self impose your own deadlines. That's the beauty of it...it's in your control.
