Better Mommy

So I have just stumbled upon a few sites I'd like to share.  They've got some awesome ideas for my kids.  I find that I always seem to be in a hurry, even if I don't have to get anywhere!  I don't know where I learned it, but my life seems to be going by way too fast.  Maybe it's because I'm always hurrying things along.  Here are some great ideas that I need to remember that are also important for my children to hear.  Overall the underlying message I wish to be sending to my children is this: You are the most important part of my life.  I love raising you and would love to spend every moment cherishing you and your unique-ness.  I want my children to remember me by the way I made them feel.  Hopefully that will be "cherished and loved".  Not always hurried along.

This first one is my favorite!
