What tasks have you let go of or delegated?
I have a toddler who, in the grand tradition of toddlers, leaves a wake of things in her path. I used to follow her everywhere, trying to keep the house as tidy as possible, but now I don't worry about picking up until the end of the day, when I'm listening to the news. So what if I (more than) occasionally trip over a toy or the bottle of red wine vinegar she loves to drag out of the cupboard? I'm now actually enjoying these weird, delightful toddler games.
