Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis once said, “If you bungle raising your children, I don’t think whatever else you do well matters very much.” Can’t say it any better myself. We may dress a little differently, and have lived many years apart, but that pretty much captures my thoughts on the matter.

As I approach the big ’40’ next week. it is a pleasant reminder not to lose focus and keep my “eyes on the prize”. They’ll be no bungling here. There may not be much sleep either.
