I esp. love hearing about solo parenting since I am one. My husband and I literally work complete opposite schedule, only getting a couple of hours together as a family each week, so it is very interesting for me to hear how other solo parents make it work.

Thanks for the shout outs but I think I feel that way about working moms. I don't think I could do that -- we're all different and we make it work! That's why I love this series. Thanks for sharing your story!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00628556216175982242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548039454456114385.post-70082945126177511762014-06-05T12:54:13.458-05:002014-06-05T12:54:13.458-05:00What a great post!

That's amazing you can do that.<br /><br />We found our nanny on Care.com, too, and I also knew from the moment she walked in our door that she was the one. It is PRICELESS to have that gut feeling about someone and to know that your children are being well cared for.

My husband switched careers to be a police officer too; I was taking care of an infant all alone while he was working and in school 15 hours a day. And now the schedule of a police officer means I do a lot on my own still. But I so agree, he became much happier when he made the career change, so I can only support him fully for that. :) <br /><br />I also do the same thing with meals. I can totally live on eggs, cereal, simple, quick things when I'm eating by myself - I almost look forward to those nights - less clean up, quick food, more me time. <br /><br />You're doing amazing too- nice post!A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17918415034987411623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548039454456114385.post-13530403201075927532014-06-05T09:46:09.450-05:002014-06-05T09:46:09.450-05:00Great post!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses one room of the house to hide the mess ;) My bedroom is on a different level than everything else, so that's where the mess goes, and stays.
