The message here is probably going to be controversial, but I sincerely wish young parents would consider it:

Shamelessly scraplifted from Phylis (aka whatnext). It must be in her gallery somewhere, but I saw it on her Facebook page. Thanks Phylis!
Journaling by Willilam Martin:

Make the Ordinary Come Alive
D o not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable,but it is a way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears.
Show them how to cry when pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary come alive for them.
The extraordinary will take care of itself.
