Work Buddy

The wintery snow days (17 for the girls this Winter!) put my balancing act of working from home/keeping the girls entertained to test!  Usually they're in school on my work days - but Old Man Winter has thrown those arrangements to the wayside!  Not going to lie - it has been tough!  Lots of early mornings/late nights/working on days off to stay up to speed with tasks.  Some bribing during conference calls (to stay out of mommy's office)...but we have been managing and doing quite well.  And I am thankful to have the opportunity to work from home...I can't imagine how hard it has been for parents to find alternative childcare or take time away from their personal time off to manage children out of their normal school routine.  Winter of 2014 has been beautiful - but brutal in some respects!  But we are making the most of it and know it's a time that is filled with lots of warmness that won't ever be forgotten.  Here is my little office buddy this morning.  I think she's pretty cute.  She kept herself busy scribbling pictures on tablets and punching keys on our broken laptop!  If she keeps up the hard work - she may earn herself a promotion:-)
