    I work til the end of the week and then my daycare business will close. Have worked from home for 9 years and it has been great, but my children are older and it is time for a change. This is my first summer off in over 12 years. Wishing everyone a great summer and a successful start to the next school year. I will post soon for a close out sale if anyone will be interested, it will be on July 6 th and the 7th.

    Take Care.

    Happy Summer - that's wonderful that you're able to take 7 weeks off! Do you have teachers children?

    I'm off for the next week and a half, and then a week off in August. Then I go on my mat leave in October for 6 months. I'm looking forward to closing!!!

    I grew up as a product of teachers child, and absolutely LOVED it! My hubby is a teacher as well, but just couldn't get any teachers' children for the home daycare. So....I have families instead with amazing family support systems (or they take the 5-10 weeks off/year!).

    Interested...and sooo jealous. Relax and be well; you've earned it!
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

    Me too! I am so fortunate to have just teacher's children for full timers (my hubby is a teacher too). I am so regretting my decision to take on school aged for the summer...what was I thinking?! Never again!
