Well, not literally backwards. Now that would be a skill. Anyway, loving this post and this topic in general. My career didn't really blossom either until I became a mom and I so totally get the "flow" you describe, it was what kept me going back when I was selling and up making toys all night long. I didn't need sleep, I was happy! After having my second child just 6 months ago I'm feeling the flow again. This time though I plan to make sleep a priority no matter how jazzed up I get to avoid burnout. Anyway, I'm loving the behind the scenes look at how you are running your business as a mother too. Your happiness shines through your posts! I know this is an old post, but I just discovered this blog of yours today and have been reading backwards. Well, not literally backwards.

And how awesome is twitter at supplanting Google - not only is it a place to go for answers, it's also an incredible support group! And FLOW! Yes, grab that flow and ride it! There will ALWAYS be laundry and dirty dishes to do, but those wonderful moments when you're full to bursting with ideas - celebrate those and try to get the most that you can out of them! How awesome that having Lola (and not working for "the man") has been the source of that wonderful energy! YAY! 1st of all these are great pix – I especially love the one of Lola with her Dad (?I assume – Hi Scoutie Guy!) it’s captured such a wonderful expression on her face!

I have NO DOUBT you will be working for yourself (for as long as you wish!) because you are a very talented and driven person (not to mention super nice, sweet and giving). Between scoutiegirl and your growing design business you are going to CRUSH IT this year and as long as YOU are happy and your family is thriving, enjoy yourself and don't sweat the 'mess'. We all support you! Hey Tara,

A full-time working mom of 2 asked me the exact same thing the other day. I couldn't see what she was talking about. But I think it's the same as you, I've been given the chance to figure it out and I'm firing with all guns blazing. At least for a couple minutes here and there. Between the leg-hugs of my 13 month old ;) You'll have to share how you plan to handle going down to 1 nap a day. I'm a little scared of that ... Amen to not working for the man!
