Sorry

It has been a while since I last blogged. In fact, I hesitated to start a blog because I knew I wouldn't have enough to say! Since I last blogged, my child has started to pull up, crawl, and sleep through the night. So, while he's keeping me even more busy during the day, at least I'm getting to sleep at night some!
Many of you know that when Tyler was born, I became a stay at home mom. This was the first time in my life during which I wasn't going to school or working full time. I got bored fast. So, I took on a part time job (Tyler comes with me), started an online course with the local community college (very demanding) and am helping out some friends with an adoption (sometimes I feel like I'm in WAY over my head). Now, I must be honest and say I wonder if I've taken on too much. I'm already falling behind in my school work and wondering if my desire to keep my part time job is at the expense of my son. Now that he's crawling, it's a lot harder to keep him happy and entertained for three or four hours while I try to work! It's such a delicate balance for the mother who wants nothing more than to stay home with her child while at the same time, requires some sort of activity outside the home! Advice?
