Since september I've had to drop my lad off at preschool in the car 3 days a week and all I can say is it's objectively worse than cycling. There's always traffic and I'm always second guessing which route is going to be quicker. Even in the rain and wind (which i got on tuesday for my ride in) riding a bike is just much, much better.
I'm in exactly the same situation and I agree with all of this.

I feel bad complaining - I hate getting into the car - and sometimes some parts of the ride are great but I feel like I’m loosing more and more of what made it great
The ride to work (where I have no interest in being, it’s just become transactional) is a 42 mile round trip and I feel old and tired of being invisible to a significant minority of drivers and can’t see the point of getting run over for the trip to the office
Apologies for moping around on the thread
