The house is quiet. Everyone is in bed. I’m writing HTML, PHP, mySQL queries and mucking around in Photoshop.

It’s 10:30 PM. And the emails start coming in

Several from Tiffany, a graphic design artist. Two more from Tracy, our mutual client.

11:30 PM. More new emails. And I notice that May has just signed on to her IM – she’s a programmer.

What do we have in common? We’re all work at home moms. During the day, we make meals, change diapers, do laundry, carpool, run errands, referee sibling battles, comfort boo-boos. Night time is the only uninterrupted time we have to go through emails and really work on projects.
