Cultivate your spirit and creativity. My son is the biggest part of my life…but he is not my entire life. I say that in the healthiest, most loving way possible. It is so easy to get swallowed up in your kids’ world. Cultivating your spirit and creativity is just as important as cultivating theirs. The best example you can set for your children is to have a life outside of them. This will give them the confidence to have a life outside of you. So when you are with your kids, be with them. But when you are not, be you! Talk about the things that you are doing and make sure you are doing things worth talking about. You can drop your kids at dance class; just don’t forget to go dancing now and then with your girlfriends.
