Setting an Example

I was riding in the car with my mom and little sister the other day when my 11 year old sister asked my mom if she went to a bar on her 21st birthday. My mom answered "no, I didn't". Savannah replied, "so you didn't go to a bar and drink when you turned 21?" Again, my mom said, "nope". It just kind of hit me right there as we were sitting in the car. The decisions I make today do not only effect the people I know right now, such as friends or little siblings, but they will also effect my children and even grandchildren one day. Kind of crazy to think about, you know? I want to set a good example for the people I know right now, but I also want to set a good example  for my own children one day.
