I feel like this some days too! I think for me because I have so many really little ones, I sometimes feel like it is hard to squeeze in the one-on-one time between all the diaper changes, snacks, lunch, naps, etc. Plus we do outings and art time etc. I am a huge fan of free play as Reggio mentioned...but then sometimes I second guess myself and wonder if I should be doing more planned activities. Also, there are days when they drive me nuts Usually those days are when I haven't had enough sleep or I am not feeling well...then the little things get to me. I love Reggio's idea of best and worst...not sure if my group would be able to contribute as they are all 3 and under! however, I send out a nightly email, kind of like a blog, to parents telling about our day and I think this is actually therapeutic for me because it forces me to think about the positives of the day and the kids...I try to say something postive about each child in terms of something they did or said. Vacation also helps a lot! Maybe you need one?
