Being the best me

Lately it just seems like time is just passing me by and every week I think, "what have I done with my time? Answer: Nothing.  ovbiously I do things but I feel like I could do more and be better.  My girls are growing so fast.  I feel like I need to treasure every moment with them because there will come a time where they won't need me (or THINK they need me)  as much anymore and then what will I do? I will be .... lost. BUT hopefully when that time comes, I taught them well enough that they will be able to make good choices on their own. but until that day comes ... I MUST START NOW!!! I decided the best way to do this is to lead by example! I need to be living the way that I want them to one day live.  I need to be happy and enjoy life like I want them to one day do.  I need to get down on the floor and make them more important than anything else so they will know that is what you do with your kids ... you let them be kids and you be a kid with them!  I need to read my scriptures and say my prayers daily so they know that is what you need to do because when you are a mom you need Heavenly Father's help all day, ever day!!!  I am just so grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves me so much and is so forgiving and has trusted me with these two beautiful girls.  I feel truly blessed!
