FB - what is your "something about myself" comment?

I need a good quote or something. I'm not saying I'm going to copy anyone's quote/saying. Figured I'd hear some good mom sayings here.

"I hope that my child, looking back on today, remembers a mother who had time to play. Children grow up when you're not looking, there will be years ahead for cleaning and cooking. So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust, go to sleep. I'm nursing my baby, ?cause babies don't keep."

?"A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove....but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child."

"A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for."

Like the poem above but I think this sees far from what you are looking for, but worth sharing anyway and I am glad I read this post b/c I needed this reminder!

Life is fleeting, years rush past?
and little boys grow up so fast.
Let me take time out to be
thankful mine is still here with me.
And though I am busy through the day,
let me take the time to play?
Let me take the time out to smile,
to sit with him just for a while?
Let me take time out for walks,
for swings and sports and quiet talks.
For sharing giggles, tickles and hugs,
for patching knees and catching bugs.
For running races, climbing trees,
for helping with his A, B, Cs?
For hatching plots and planning schemes,
for listening to his thoughts and dreams.
Let me tuck him in at night,
hear his prayers, turn off the light.
And when my busy day is done,
let me thank God I have a son.
