Congratulations--Stay focused, have fun and enjoy the time. Do keep track of what works for you and the children. As Play and Learn stated stick to your contract and don't be swayed as many of us have in the beginning. I try not to become friends with my parents,as I have had bad experiences with this before. When I first opened 15 years ago, I wrote a schedule for the day with weekly themes. It never works exactly as written down, but it keeps you on track.
Good Luck!!
