Learn from the rejection and turn it into an opportunity!
Life is too short to rush around and be too busy for your kids.
Time flies whether you are having fun or not.
Not what you do but how you do it, is the test of your capacity.
My best ideas come to me at unexpected moments, like when I'm reading children's books to my kids (the pictures inspire me), shopping, driving somewhere, seeing different things.
My mother always read to me as a child. I really believe that bonding time between a parent and child is so important and precious. I have lasting memories of those stories because the experience was special.
