Even when you have lots of things to do. You have to live in the moment. You have to have some relaxing time. Some time to enjoy your life.
Remember that you can not get back the time that you wasted and did not spend with your children doing fun things. When I worked overnight and my children were in school. I went to sleep so I would be awake when they came home from school
. Even if we went to the park or to the pond than the children were with me spending time with me. When I had my days off. We would go roller skating, swimming or go to the children's museum which was free with the first three children. With the last three it was not free anymore
. If there was a good movie playing we would go to the movies. Or rent some movies and have pizza night. When you have children you do not want to lose any of the time that you have with them. Even a walk to 7/11 for a hotdog and big gulp was fun for my children

I spent a lot of time with my kids but as I get older and they aren't around as often, I wish I would have spent more time with them.
I was very busy when they were young and now that I am older, they have very busy lives. It's like the Harry Chapin song the Cats in the Cradle

My dad was the editor for a Latvian newspaper and he had Thursdays off and mom worked in Manhattan, So on his day off dad took me where-ever I wanted to go like a kids movie or the zoo etc,

Yes, it is good to give quality time to our children, and when the children are grown up, they should remember to give back some quality time to their parents too.
I often feel that I should have spent more time with my old mother, but I was always so busy, tied up in my own pursuits. I regret this now, that she has gone, as when I was young, she gave so much of her time to me.
