[quote=Anonymous]My tips are: Make time on the weekends to spend time with your child. My work schedule is much better now, but dd and I still have a standing Saturday lunch date, just the two of us. Try to make as many school events as possible, even if it's hard. I missed a grand total of one event, and dd still remembers. Take your dc into the office, so they can see what you do. My dd loved going to work with me, and was (and is) very proud of my accomplishments. The hardest part will be making time for yourself. I found I was getting very little sleep because the middle of the night was my only time to read and have some quiet time, and I need that. [/quote]
