Sounds like we are in the same position! My boys are 3 and 4 and I agree with the mom who gives them "big boy" stuff to do. I do it with my boys too! Flashcards are very helpful, and sticking to your lecture notes has helped me. I also tape lecture and skills demonstrations and listen to them every chance I get. Another thing I do is keep a little notebook and every morning I do a "brain dump" into it. I start a new page with the date and make a checklist of everything that comes into my head. If I complete more than 50% of the list, I give myself a little reward. There is a light a the end of this and you can (and will) do it. Hugs to you
