Don't get me wrong, I love my time with my children and family, but for me, to be better as a person, but mostly a mom, that last hour of my day is my time to decompress. My boys all understand that about me. Mommy needs a time out but it is a different kind of time out.
Although something else I like to end my day with is to do a scan of my day and wonder what I could have differently to help my children be better people. The same goes for myself, I think back of the day and wonder why I said or did certain things.
At the end of the day, hockey has wrapped up, or we've just watched a movie, and it's time to rest our heads. We all go to sleep wishing for a better day ahead.

There is this other great practice that I love where you take a moment at the end of the day to think of one thing you can be grateful for. The trick is it has to be something different every time. This way you spend the day with an eye out for what is going well. It helps to increase your happiness and helps you to live more in the moment. :)
