“Amidst the whirl of life with kids, you can retreat, even for a moment, to that core of serenity within. Maybe when you hear the phone ring, use it as a cue to take a deep breath and drop your shoulders.” –Mimi Doe

“Give yourself a break from perfectionism. Nurturing a child is a monumental job, so go easy on yourself. Relax and reward yourself for stories read and hugs given.” –Mimi Doe

“Celebrate your child’s nature discoveries. Whether it’s spotting a bee hive, a bird’s nest, or a constellation, make a drawing of the discovery, and display it until the next sighting. Then paste into a scrapbook.” –Mimi Doe

“Honor the value of free time. Make sure the weekends are a time to rest, daydream, and recharge for the week ahead.” –Mimi Doe
