In my last writing class of my undergrad, the prof told us a statistic: the single most influential act to influence your kids to read is not reading to them, but letting them see you read. Let them know its importance to you.
Why? Because kids mirror their parents. If that is true for reading, it's probably true for all aspects.
So what do you want to teach your kids? That they too can be strong individuals with interests, or that they will have someone sacrifice every bit of her life to tend to them?
The balance is tricky - single or in a partnership. I admire you all for finding a system that works. I had trouble managing a dog.
