My hats off to you, Jan. You are working, studying, doing housework, and raising your two young children - I hope you see how much you are accomplishing.
I am a SAHM with 3 children under 5 years old and I can barely get everything done! A former regret of mine was that when my first child came along, I dropped everything and became completely absorbed in my child. I followed in the same manner with the next two. I'm a firm believer in "everything happens for a reason" so I've decided not to second guess the past and just work from where I am now. And so, here I am, on the Pavlina websites, building myself up again. I love my children very much and having my own personal goals and aspirations makes me a better mom and a good example to my children.
Interruptions are terribly frustrating. Sometimes I have patience and handle them well. At other times, when I have no patience left, I remember what my children's 98 year old great grandfather said to me - to cherish this time with my young children because it will be what I will always remember years from now. He still remembers when his children were young and it brings a smile to his face - he did good. I want that too.
Best of luck to you in all your endeavors!
