And unlike my job at Google, which was based almost exclusively in California, my Facebook role requires a lot of travel. 在谷歌时，我的工作地点基本在加利福尼亚，但在脸谱网则常常需要出差。
As a result, I have become even more vigilant 2 about leaving the office to have dinner with my children when I'm not on the road. 所以不出差的时候，我都会按时下班赶回家陪孩子们吃晚餐。

I also have a wonderful sister who lives close by and is always willing to take care of her niece and nephew, occasionally at a moment's notice. 我还有个好妹妹，她就住在附近，很乐意帮我照看孩子。
She's even a pediatrician, so my kids are not just in loving hands, they're in medically trained hands. 正巧她还是个儿科医生，所以我的孩子不仅能得到家人的关爱，在健康方面也有专业的保障。
