"We decided long
ago that nothing--not even our children--would ever come between
us. Furthermore, we realized, early-on, that one of the most
important messages we could give our children was to set an example
as two parents who truly love and like each other; two
people who prioritize one another and look forward to being together--even
though we have a family to nurture and care for."

"If you have children,
set your agenda aside....When you have children to care for,
it's almost impossible to know exactly what is going to occur
on any given day. To flow with the changes and uncertainties
requires an ability to be flexible and responsive."

"There's nothing
quite like a bickering match between siblings to ruin an otherwise
peaceful day around the house....However, I have found that the
best strategy ...is to make peace with it, once and for all.
....when you accept it as part of the package of parenting, no
added fuel is thrown on the fire. In fact, there is a relationship
between the degree to which you can stay detached and relaxed
and the lesser amount of bickering that you will have to endure."
