Yes I am still trying to figure out what more I need to do at the daycare. I’m already license for 177... so why not make the most of every room that I have? I mean letting a room stay empty that could be bringing me a revenue of 10 grand a month is stupid right? The problem I’m having is, it takes money to make money and I am out of money! So I guess maybe doing something in small doses or a little at a time would be the best thing to do right now. That and it would need to be a double room! UGh the issues I can see happening right before my eyes! lol
However, getting back on track here.... I have a lot of People wanting to bring their children and I feel like I need to get this done before summer.
Summer!!
That brings more obstacles I have to jump over... which is buying a van. I know Yukon is growing... so I should always stay full, but it's still a scary thing to do and a scary situation to find oneself in. Paying the teachers more so that I can keep them is a great incentive! I really want to offer them insurance and PTO and holiday pay too.
Surely I can figure this out!
Well, I have very little time to ... infact.. to figure this out! I am going to have carpet put in quickly so that I can move kids around. I am just thankful that I have people to help me! Its really hard to do this type of work alone like when we first opened! It goes much smoother now!

Married Life
As we got into bed this evening, Dennis and I were reflecting on the day and trying to 'out do' one another with what we did for each other today.
After I told him what I did for him, He was telling me everything he did for me today and at the end his voice went funny and crackly and I laughed and made fun of his voice.
Me, while mimicking his voice: Why you sound like that at the end of the sentence?
He laughed and said: Cause I was running out of breath and I wasn't done bitching yet!!
Story of my life... He doesn't stop bitching even while gasping for air!♡

Always a Bright Side...
I am not a depressed person by nature... but have occasionally felt the sting of being sad for no apparent reason.
However, being that I AM an optimistic person by nature... this is how I view my depression when it hits!

How sweet is that?
I don’t know what it is about books and puzzles but my grandchildren love them! Especially Joanie and Sammi! They can both work on a puzzle for a very short time and have it together. Sammi is more then happy to do the same puzzle over and over. Today I gave her a new 25 piece floor puzzle to do that she hadn't done before and she loved it. She had it done in nothing flat!
Also today while the kids were over playing, we have all these toys scattered throughout the living room, all at their disposal, and I hear nothing... No squealing, no fighting... and I think to myself: This can't be good! If they get quiet, I think, "oh no!! Where are they? And what are they into?" Low and behold... I found both of them in the library, sitting in my reading chair reading a book! How sweet is that?!?

A Day of Play
We had Sammi and Danny over today. They came around 10 and stay until 2...went home and took naps and then came back around 5, and stayed until 8.
We had lots of fun and did lots of things; we did puzzles and played with dinosaurs... they played outside with Pop and took a bath where they got to play with new tub toys. We read some books, we ate some supper and we watched a movie.
Of course Sammi noticed I had my nails painted so she wanted hers painted too... once Danny saw this...He didn’t want to be left out! So yes, I painted his nails...... clear! (I don't want his daddy mad at me!) As soon as I was done he promptly rub them together like I had just put lotion on his hands and went on his merry way. Sometimes it’s just about feeling included.
