Advice to Myself...

Enjoy your children while they're young because they grow up too fast.
Always treat your family as well as you would a guest.
Play more.
Keep a record of the unimportant moments as well as the important ones (I really wish I would have done that more!)
Chidren can be taught to do their own laundry - Benjamin is a huge help here!
Be in the moment.
Don't rush through the infant and toddler stages.
Be patient when it comes to potty training---especially when it takes longer than you think.
Breath.
Every moment does not need to be planned.
Elaborate vacations and fancy birthday parties are not requirements for a happy childhood.
A big empty box(& laundry basket) is more fun than most toys you can buy.
Take time to step back and see your child as the person he/she is becoming.
