I am so anal about dates...I don't think I've ever served something that was past the date and even if it's just like 2-3 days it makes me uncomfortable!

Your lot sounds wonderful bright...(insert sarcasm). I can't believe some make comments on other kids development right in front of the other parents?! Sheesh!

I've been having some issues myself with some clients but they pale in comparison lol. I have a family who has been with me for 2 years and they are getting on my nerves lately. It's been an accumulation of little things in the last few months and it feels as though it's coming to a head. Sending her to daycare even though she threw up the night before (she ended up having hand foot mouth and EVERYONE got it-my policy is they need to be healthy for a full 24 hours before coming), pressure to potty train, pressure to get her to drop her nap. It's been frustrating, it's like they think they deserve special treatment because they have seniority? I don't know but I've just about had it with them. I have another child who started biting and another who is so unbelievably coddled at home it makes things difficult for me...ugh!
