I found this list on the LDS.org website today. I thought it was a good reminder of things I need to be doing each day.
1. Take time to always be at the crossroads in the lives of your children, whether they be six or sixteen.
2. Take time to be a real friend to your children.
3. Take time to read to your children.
4. Take time to pray with your children.
5. Take time to have a meaningful weekly home evening. Make this one of your great family traditions.
6. Take time to be together at mealtimes as often as possible.
7. Take time daily to read the scriptures together as a family.
8. Take time to do things together as a family.
9. Take time to teach your children.
10. Take time to truly love your children. A mother’s unqualified love approaches Christlike love
(see Ezra Taft Benson, To the Mothers in Zion, pamphlet, 1987, pp. 8–12; )

Rebecca you are an amazing mom!! I see your beautiful family and you have done such an amazing job at raising them!! I love reading your blog because you have such great things I can apply!! THanks for being so great!!
for some reason your blog doesn't update on my side bar, so I don't come here as often as I should.:) I hear you are moving this weekend? South Weber is it? It is beautiful down there and I'm sure you'll enjoy actually seeing Josh once in a while.
This list was in our marriage and family relations book -- I too enjoyed it! Thanks.
