I have new-found respect for my LIS classmates with small children. I am babysitting one of my nieces this weekend so my brother and sister-in-law can get away and have a weekend (They parcelled out the four children. I have the house and the 16-month old.) Lorelei and I were up at 6 AM this morning, and she was on-the-go until 10:30 when she crashed and I put her down for a nap - asleep by 10:45, and now I'm working on assignments while she sleeps. This is working well, especially since she's taking a really good nap, but I can't imagine trying to do both schoolwork and housework during a child's naptime. And I'm imagining the panic one could feel when the opportunity to do schoolwork arrives and the technology doesn't cooperate. (Mine's playing well with others, thankfully.) Those of you who are doing grad school with small children - you have my utmost respect. I thought it was hard enough with a full-time job!
