My kids are older now (20 and 18), and out on their own (sorta, but that's another thread entirely!!) . But when they were at home, I found that if they popped in unexpectedly, or it was time for them to come home from school, then I just switched over to Mom mode. It could sometimes be a little frustrating Havensov, but it was well worth it! She could perhaps work around the baby's schedule during the day, and then when it's time for the 7 year old to come home, then go completely into Mom mode. Of course a little flirting and such in front of your kids isn't a bad thing....you just can't go all out of course! Hope this helps ya!![]()
