I am convinced it is the most difficult way to work - the distractions, breastfeeding while on conference calls or the little girl crys in the backgroud while you stuggle to find the mute button and, of course, the expense of the babysitter. Having said all of that, I wouldn't trade any of the difficult moments for anything. I know it is going to work out for you. Sending good vibes for good news.

I rarely agree with these people and want desperately to escape but the "polite" me often stays in the conversation. People waiting for my parking spot and giving sharky, impatient looks while I wrangle my 3 year old and 1 year old into the car, load up groceries, sling, shopping basket cover, purse, and more. They act like I am forcing them to wait for this particular spot. Thanks, that was fun!

It's not realistic to think that I can avoid that. Accept the mess. When I am using the bathroom and Reagan busts in the door jumping up and down screaming, "I have to go to the bathroom!!!" I will usually stop and let him go so we avoid an accident. This is not comfortable for me. Got more
