That sweet little thing is about to commandeer your life. Be prepared. AMBER KRYSTALLIS ISN'T GET-ting out much these days. She spends every waking moment at someone else's beck and call, performing a dizzying blur of tasks that never seem to satisfyher commander, much less elicit a thank-you. "He's fussy most of the time," allows the Bronx-ville, New York, fashion-industry assistant who often toils away in the middle of the night, logging only about four or five hours of sleep. Preparing to unveila designer's latest collection? Hardly. Krystallis is on maternity leave, caring for her infant son, Jackson, and realizing that new parenthood is a kind of endless episode of "Survivor"— without the sweeping views.
