Working From Home With a Toddler

I’ve been working from home for a month now and I’m surprised at how much I enjoy it and how easy its been (totally just jinxed myself).

I’m not so naive to think that working from home is a cakewalk. There have definitely been challenging days, days when I didn’t get done what I needed or wanted to, days when I wanted to throw my computer at the wall and run screaming down the street.But those days haven’t clouded the good days or the joy I get from this additional time with my son.

I’m not sure I would have enjoyed working from home as much when he was an infant. I enjoy sharing my office with this toddler. He’s cute and funny and smart — I know, I’m totally bias  — and I love just getting to know him more. I’m sure we’ll continue to have our workplace squabbles but we’re having a lot of fun, too.

Do you share your home office with a toddler? How’s it going?
