Did I say I was better at time management?

How ironic that my last post mentioned something about time management, yet it's now 3 months later when I finally find some time to make a new post!
At just over 10 months, my daughter is such a laugh - she delights me every day with her friendliness and sense of humour which can, in a matter of one second, change to moody and teary - but still amazing.
I have such an incredible respect now for Mums who manage a business, for Mums who go to work each day and for Mums in general. And Dads too of course, but you know what, mainly Mums.
The things we juggle!
There are pros and cons of working from home or going to work, if you don't have the choice to focus on being a Mum 100% of the time. 
Friends of mine who had regular jobs enjoyed maternity leave and time to spend solely as a parent. But now, as our little ones get older, most are either back, or looking at going back, to work. The thought would be so horrible for me - I just couldn't do it. 
Meanwhile I am lucky enough (the harder I work, the luckier I get) to be able to go back to work right here at home. The con? I never left! Even when Ruby was 1 week old I was still managing jobs. In fact I was answering emails from hospital - because I have a business to run. 
I have had no time off from my work, but I have not had much time off from the best job of all - being a Mum.
Working from home as a Mum is so different from working from home without kids. There are so many more time constraints, interrupted nights, and constant distractions.
There is no 'clock on and focus at this time, clock off at that time" - at least not for me.
It's "clocking on, oh hang on, not yet, in a minute, maybe in an hour, hopefully, ok clocking on. Clocking off suddenly at any point for a moment or for a few hours, to be continued goodness knows when"......
Even now, at 8.35pm I could be interrupted by a crying bubba who is frustrated with teething or feeling snotty or just not liking the whole "sleep thing".
If I had to leave to go to work though, the sleepless night wouldn't be followed by a nap when my little one naps - it would be followed by a full day at work. 
It would require me to leave my little one in the care of someone else.
It would only give me a small amount of time to spend with the most amazing person I've ever met.
As hard as it is - I wouldn't change my work situation for the world. Thank goodness I can work from home and be a Mum too.
It's a good life, ain't it.
