Throughout 42 years of a loving marriage, Jimmy Buffett and his wife, Jane Slagsvol, raised three children. During this time, Buffett balanced traveling on the road with bonding with his family. Whenever he missed out in quantity, he tried to make up for with quality. "I’m a dad that’s gone a lot, but I look back at it, and I tried to make my time at home have as much quality as possible," he told People. To further rack up more time with those who mattered most, Buffett brought his children on tour with him when possible. In particular, they spent breaks from school with their dad during "Margaritaville"-themed concerts. While balancing family time, Buffett also balances a delicate "work-to-play ratio." It demands a lot of work. But it's all worth it as long as his kids "have a better sense of the world" than he did at a younger age. Meet his three beloved children here!
