Just read this really inspiring article by Kari Kubiszyn Kampakis: 10 Common Mistakes Parents Today Make (Me Included)

This is so true!
One day there won't be stickers on my sink. There won't be Barbies in my bathtub, baby dolls on my bed or Mary Poppins in the DVD player. My windows will be clear of sticky handprints, and my home will be quiet because my daughters will be hanging out with friends instead of nesting at home with me.

Raising small children can be hard, monotonous work. At times it's so physically and emotionally exhausting we wish they were older to make our life easier. [...] 

But as we project into the future, wondering if our child's knack for art will make them a Picasso, or if their melodic voice will create a Taylor Swift, we may forget to soak up the splendor in front of us: toddlers in footed pajamas, bedtime stories, tummy tickles and elated squeals. We may forget to let our children be little and enjoy the one childhood they're given.
Yes, I do have stickers all over the house, Barbies in my bathtub, Ninja Turtles dolls on my bed, Peppa Pig songs in the CD player and "The Planes" movie in the DVD player. Yes, I do love all this, even if it's hard, stressful and monotonous. 
It's 1 a.m. now and my kids are sleeping in my bed. Even though it can be wearisome and frustrating, I love them snoring in my ear. That's the truth.
