My mother-in-law told us she would only ever give us one piece of parenting advice: "If you do it once, plan to do it 500 times." That has rang true for everything from giving hugs to how many presents are given to each child at Christmastime to the evening wrestling matches with Daddy. Kids love repetition and routine!

"The dishes/laundry/dusting/etc. can and will wait for you. Go play with your kids now!"
"Take time to look after yourself" and "You always have time for what you put first" - your DH and you need to know what your life's priorities are.

Make time to play with your chilren and don't be afraid to show your silly side ... and to make time for yourself a priority.
