A question from a single parent

A question I frequently ask myself is: "how can I be in two places at once?"

Recently, I've been potty training Lily, which in itself is pretty difficult! But as a single parent.. It verges on impossible. I have to keep my eye on her constantly and remember to ask her if she needs the toilet. I need to look out for any signs she might show of needing to go for a wee or poop (such as fidgeting, crossing legs or running off to hide). This makes doing anything other than look after her pretty darn difficult! My house is currently a crazy mess, I'm behind on my college work and dinner is frequently burnt or furniture/floors ruined.
The only answer I have here is: stick it out. It's difficult now, and it will remain difficult for a long time, but the good times are great and it will all be worth it in the end!
