Unfortunately, I don't have a home office so when it's working time, the kids are usually in my lap, draped across my shoulders, or battling each other for my attention right in front of me. It's pretty awesome and glamorous. ;)<br /><br />@Carolina - Girl! I write with the least frequency in my Reader. That lady above you? BigLittleWolf?

And the Santa lead-time on correspondence makes perfect sense, doesn't it?<br /><br />Having worked from a home office when my boys were very little, it was a training process to get them to understand that mom-in-office (with glass door to see and be seen) meant mom-at-work. The rule? No interruptions, unless there's blood. <br /><br />It worked for us... and they seem to have made it to adolescence intact!BigLittleWolfhttp://dailyplateofcrazy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16484482.post-39880985075035495922010-07-16T10:24:03.529-04:002010-07-16T10:24:03.529-04:00Oh and I have to say I think your little asides (i...Oh and I have to say I think your little asides (imagine his eyeballs rolling on the floor) were probably the funniest.The Drama Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11989820542966245871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16484482.post-79006659474425038062010-07-16T10:23:03.797-04:002010-07-16T10:23:03.797-04:00Hahah I LOVE these.

I also don't paint my nails or wear make up or jewelry. These are all character flaws according to my son. <br /><br />Oh, and he has decided he needs to be on the radio with me next time.

I love "shit kids say" and could listen to a funny kid all day long. Little people are the best because they are just figuring things out and don't let logic get in the way.<br /><br />Working from home has been pretty ridiculous.

I prepared a post for tomorrow that looks exactly like yours here, with excerpts of my little girl’s “conversations” except she’s not talking in sentences yet so it’s nowhere near as hilarious as yours. I love that kids are so expressive, and their innocence makes it even more delightful because we may live in the same house, but they are a worldview apart. I have to say their world is better than ours though.<br /><br />And kudos to you for being able to work with your kids around you. I only have one and I can barely focus on the task at hand with her constant need for attention, in a see-what-I’m-doing-mommy kind of way.Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16968048136720936198noreply@blogger.com
