balance

When your family was young and your children were younger how were you able to sculpt, paint, run a business and still be a mum? I’ve some friends that think that when children are young, mums should just be mums until the children are older – I disagree; I think it’s important to stay learning and growing as a mum and wife, else how will you stay “interesting” to your family (does that make sense?) How were you able to balance that or did you? I think you did but would like to know how you did it and would you do anything differently looking back on it all? Thankies!

twindragonsmum 😀 I worked at home, or at a studio we had right across the street from our house, and I had a nanny! My Mom helped too. It was still hard to get anything done. I also had Dhey, my assistant, who did allot of the most time consuming sculpting stuff for me, like adding texture, detailing and sanding.

I wanted to get everyone around the house tee shirts that said “staff”.

That is so perfect for twin boys! XD

That’s a good thing. Boys who take things apart often know how to put things back together and can be very useful.

Yikes! At least it was a phone jack, and not an outlet! 😮 And look at it this way–YOU get good at putting things back to together, which is *also* handy. 😀
