P. 28
The majority of my week is still focused on raising and caring for my girls; working on my business is my second priority. My work hours are squished into 2-3 days per week, but I love it so much that I tend to squeeze in a few more hours of work when my girls are asleep. I answer emails and calls out and about with my little one amidst the grocery shopping, playgrounds, and house cleaning! Thank God for the iPhone!
I find that kids don't want your "presents' they desire your 'presence'...
A quote that resonates with me is my favorite by Earl Nightingale -
