And writers are artists!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that my kids are older I can see that, and can understand why.  Do you have time for a single uninterrupted thought? No train of thought ever makes it into the station!  Every single one is derailed by the demands of motherhood. And art requires thought, it requires free brain time, and that is the one thing a mother of young children just does not have.  And twins?! Oy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But when my kids were little, I just felt badly.  Like I should do...something. Was I still an artist if I wasn&amp;#39;t making art?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You&amp;#39;re in a hard place, creatively, so give yourself a break!  This will pass.....</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2547425260028316196/5066981781965516215/comments/default/6072832741940030067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2547425260028316196/5066981781965516215/comments/default/6072832741940030067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.freckletree.com/2009/11/things-fall-apart.html?showComment=1259075321747#c6072832741940030067' title=''/><author><name>vakadesign</name><uri>http://vakadesign.wordpress.com/</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/openid16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.freckletree.com/2009/11/things-fall-apart.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2547425260028316196.post-5066981781965516215' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2547425260028316196/posts/default/5066981781965516215' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-266138025'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2547425260028316196.post-5647472225993847956</id><published>2009-11-24T02:16:23.055-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-24T02:16:23.055-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I&amp;#39;m glad you&amp;#39;re back, because I totally mi...</title><content type='html'>I&amp;#39;m glad you&amp;#39;re back, because I totally missed reading you every day.
