5. Take a deep breath

And enjoy it. Because before you know it, they'll be grown up and moved out. And though that sounds good right now, you'll be sitting around like me in a daze and saying, "where the hell did the time go?"

11. LOL

My philosophy is whatever it takes. You just have to follow through. My daughter used to say, at two years old, "Fine, I'm going to my room!" And the boy child, "So, go on ahead." And then he'd go to his room. Oh, for the simpler times. :D
