As a working mother, one of the biggest issues I have is how much quality time I spend with my daughter. It's been quite a different kettle of fish over the past month as I've gone freelance and so I've got at least three days a week that I spend exclusively with her.
However, as my freelance career starts to kick off, and as I desperately pitch one feature idea after another and try to develop my own industries, I'm finding that I have even less time during the day than I did before. At first I was focused on spending every minute of the day doing fun things together. I got into a routine of going outside, playing with the dog, sliding climbing, jumping, swinging then some reading followed by a tea party lunch and then her afternoon nap. While she lay her head down for a bit I'd try to cram all of my emailing, cleaning, cooking, phoning and writing into those precious minutes and then the dedicated time would start again. This week, however, it's been quite different.

For a while it seemed like every time I had Josh loaded in his car chair and was FINALLY ready to get out the door he would poop! Then I’d have to unload him, unload the nappy bag, change him, Go back to the car with (please don;t forget) the nappy bag and get him back in the seat before we could go. I’m a believer that you can’t control everything that happens to you in life, but you can control how you react to it. When I’m in a hurry it’s natural to feel a bit frustrated at the delay, but really, that’s silly. Who cares if I’m a bit late? I’ve found the best way to react is to just laugh it off, deal with it, and keep going.
