I used to get up every morning, get my kids ready for school or the babysitter, and then try and get myself ready for work. I could only work minimum wage jobs, so I was making about a dollar or two an hour, after childcare, gas, uniforms, etc. You know what I mean. I often wondered why I was even going to work, I was losing quality time with my children. Do you know that heart-wrenching feeling you get when your babysitter tells you that your baby took his first step? Or said his first word? I know it all too well, and that is why I made it a point to be able to work from home, so I could be here to watch my children grow.

I am not going to tell you it's easy, or you're going to get rich in a day or week. That is not humanly possible. Well, maybe if you hit the lottery it would be, but let's be realistic here. I don't know your current situation, but I have told you mine. I assume you are struggling with the same issues that I was. You have to work to pay the bills, but you want to be a mom or dad to your kids, too. And, after paying everyone else, there was barely any money left for bills. I am about to tell you a few things that may change your life, and make you much, much happier!

#1: Work at home Parenting: You DO have to set special time aside for work, and work alone. If your kids are in school, that would be the perfect time. If you have very young children, a good time would be naptime, and bedtime. Although you're going to be tired yourself, stay up for an extra hour or two. It is well worth it.

#2: Keep all of your work papers organized, and in an out-of-reach place. I didn't do this when I started, and it was a disaster! I wrote notes and ideas in a notebook that I kept at my computer, and when I tried to look up something, there was scribble all over the place. I bought a 3-ring binder, and put it on top of my fridge. Ever since, it has been smooth sailing!
