    Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!! !!!!!!!!!

    Does anyone else find it difficult to raise your own children and be Day Care Provider at the same time? Sometimes I feel like "two crazy people in one confused body".

    My sweet heart son DRIVES ME CRAZY ALL DAY!! I have actually seriously considered sending him to a daycare come September, but have changed my mind, I woud feel too guilty considering this is the reason I stayed home in the first place.
    He is 2, so going thru the Terrible Twos big time, just started potty training, his little 9 month old sister is just starting to crawl all over the place, so he is getting aggressive towards her lately.
    YES I hear ya, the daycare kids give me hardly any trouble, its just my own son who makes me go crazy all day!!

    Hugs ladies ~ I have never had to balance this myself but I often hear from my peers that daycare got way easier once their own were in school full time ... break from each other during the day but still being able to be there for them after school and so forth.
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    Oh, I so so agree!!!!
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

    My kid is definitey 'the non-listener' of my group but other than that I haven't had trouble. . . . . i'm well aware that that will change . . . . I'm enjoying it for the time being
