Also, even more recent, is the talk by President Monson from which my whole theme was inspired: "Finding Joy in the Journey". This is a must read.
A couple great quotes from this article:
"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly."
From Porfessor Harold Hill in the Music Man, “You pile up enough tomorrows, and you’ll find you’ve collected a lot of empty yesterdays."
