I suppose I could go back to my original plan which was family "A" (the ones who just had baby and are on fence of whether they will bring infant here) and family "B" (the ones due in september) had to work out days alternating. i.e., fam.A has mon,wed,thurs and fam.B has tues. fri. That way i really jusy have two full time kids all week. just dont know if they can manage that? and if they can't i will explain to them, I will fill the spots with full-time children instead.....I do need to do whats best for me. I think thats why i feel so frustrated about this, is because I feel like they are in control. and I should be the one in control. I will let them know ASAP.
