Imp tant Tips 1. Teach them responsibility with age-appropriate chores. 2.When your children embarrass you in public, just remember that someday, you will laugh about it. 3. You don’t live in a museum. Don’t kill yourself to have a pristine home. You want your kids to remember their childhood as a place where they could play, explore, and make messes. 4. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. 5. Don’t isolate yourself. Make sure you have at least one or two other moms or girlfriends who you can count on and trust. They can make the biggest difference for you when you’re going through a tough time. 6.Tell your children that you love them each and every day. 7.It’s OK to have a good cry. 8. Remember that there will be many, many difficult days in your journey as a mother, but “they will pass. And after all, it’s part of the job.

Easy Crepes
“This French delicacy is extremely versatile, as it can be filled with virtually anything -fruits, pudding, mousse for desserts as well as vegetables and meats for dinner. No need to add more oil each time unless the pan begins to stick. Freeze extra crepes for later use."
Ingredients 2 eggs 1 cup milk 2/3 cup all-purpose flour 1 pinch salt 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Directions 1. In a blender combine eggs, milk, flour, salt and oil. Process until smooth. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour. 2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Pour 1/4 cup of crepe batter into pan, tilting to completely coat the surface of the pan. Cook 2 to 5 minutes, turning once, until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
