[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had to pretty much stop reading for years. Picked it back up when youngest was 5 or so.[/quote] +1, although I mostly waited until my kids were older When I read, I become completely absorbed in reading and don’t really pay attention to little details like eating and sleeping. It’s one thing to occasionally neglect my own needs, but I couldn’t do that to kids. I needed to make sure they were taken care of, and that I would be aware of any problems that might arise. I’d read news, magazine articles, etc. I also spent a lot of time reading with my kids. But unless my husband had the kids for the day, (which was extremely rare), I didn’t think about starting a novel, abd even then I was ususlly trying to get stuff done or just catch up on sleep.
