It's hard to juggle parenting and business especially when YOUR OFFICE is... YOUR HOME!

This is a great read...

I couldn't agree more with #5 "Children learn naturally by watching, playing, and most of all, by copying adults". My 1-year-old baby pretends to type something on my keyboard when I put her on my lap while working...

A child's brain isn't a miniature adult brain. It's a brain born under construction that wires itself to the world—and parents must to create an environment that's rich with wiring instructions.

The reason why I couldn't emphasize more that, when choosing a niche, you have to make sure that you're leaning towards a field that you're interested in. Freelancing is not just a "means to an end"--it's a lifestyle. If you choose a niche for the sole reason that it's trendy, high-paying, or in-demand; without interest, you'll burn out. You'll be jumping from one client to another. You will be building a portfolio for something you don't love (or worse--hate!). Don't be pressured if you haven't found your niche though, this is a journey.
