I have recognized that I need to value every minute with my sweet boys, and am working at finding that *balance*--it is almost within reach at this point! But, yes, that is partly because they are so independent right now. Such a change! = )Becky Shillingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185515854304384764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425699691615371137.post-64574908876536223202013-11-15T08:44:29.707-05:002013-11-15T08:44:29.707-05:00Thanks so much, Joan!

I remember that time as the point where I could dedicate a couple of hours to writing every week day, and thought of it as the beginning of the new phase. That is- the phase where *time management* became a real possibility... <br />And it doesn't seem like it, but having little ones will pass faster than you think. You are right to pause a bit and marvel at it all.Mirka Breenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653086859905415156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425699691615371137.post-65150463917416442572013-11-13T09:29:03.238-05:002013-11-13T09:29:03.238-05:00Dear Becky,
Putting the pause on writing to enjoy...Dear Becky, <br />Putting the pause on writing to enjoy life or to tend to major problems in life is a great idea. Our life experiences are the basis for our writing. Our characters and their emotions emerge from our life experiences. Sometimes life pushes the pause button when you didn't give it permission, it's best to relax and be calm knowing that time for writing will come again.<br /><br />Thanks for your great ideas, Becky.<br />Joan Y.

My recent run of extreme business has made me rethink time management.
