Tom Brady's life hasn't slowed down since he retired from football, as he is now settling into his life as an NFL broadcaster at Fox Sports. It's been a busy few years for him, as he went through a divorce with his wife of 16 years Gisele Bundchen as his long football career came to a close.

Amid his career change, Tom has maintained that his kids are a significant part of his life, as PageSix reported he said: "I got a lot of things that keep me busy, but still trying to be a great dad and be there for my kids. All the parents out there know that it's a challenge to be a good parent."

"Your love of family, friends, school, athletics, hard work and dedication to everything you put your energy into are just some of your amazing qualities. I love spending every minute with you and I cherish our time together," he continued.

He then alluded to his son's athletic prowess, as he teased: "Those are all my favorite things about you. My least favorite is that you can beat me in one on one now."
