Until You Have Children...



... you don't realize just how much you can get done in the 37 minutes you have available while your little hopeful is playing with some toys. To give you an example:
Today, between 2.16 and 2.53, Nahla was on her absolute most angelic behavior and sat on the floor quietly reading a book and examining an old doll she found. And in that little window of domestic time, this efficient mummy did the following: put on a machine of washing, hung up another to dry, ironed two whole piles of clothes, folded them and put them away, emptied the dishwasher, peeled a whole lot of sweet potato and carrots in preparation for our dinner later and gave myself a mini manicure with the new fab color I had ordered from Butter London that arrived in the post yesterday morning.

Phew! Multi tasking takes on a whole new level with a very active 1-year old in the house!
