I'm going to come out and be honest about it--writing with three kids six and under requires commitment. If I face a choice between writing and organising my laundry room, I don't obsess over what's the write thing to do. If my kids build a fort in the middle of the living room with sofa cushions, pillows, and two duvets, the fort is going to stay until they build a space ship out of the same materials. I'm not the one to interfere with their creativity. Forts are here to stay, otherwise, what's the point?
I certainly can and will go to bed with my dishes unwashed. Though I'll fight deadly fatigue and get up at 3AM to finish a chapter. Or a sentence.
