Life is so busy when you grow up. You have to balance your time between a career that is going to take you places and a family that gives you a reason to breathe.

The fact that life is packed with things to keep you busy shouldn't stop you from enjoying yourself with your children. Children pick up on it when we are too busy to play, or to read, or to sit and just listen to the gobbledegook they come out with. They know when they need to be quiet to let you be, and that draws it into the spotlight: you need time with your kids.
