* We’ve had some moms suggest that you ask a friend/spouse to help with the children for as many hours as possible. If you are deep in papers, tasks, and clutter, don’t lose heart–just do whatever you can (beg, plead, barter) to get the assistance you need. It will be worth it. You may even want to get an organizing partner, so you can take turns helping with children, cooking, etc.
