I *enjoy* planning those sorts of activities and games etc. My children LOVE it and I thrive on the organization and detail. (Not that it matters much to them at their ages- but it will undoubtedly be a big benefit to get into the swing of doing so when it comes time to homeschool ;) And while I agree- I'd definately have help if I had 6, daycare providers aren't the only ones who do those sorts of things... Nannies (or good ones) do as well. ;)

I tend to go by what is written and how it is written based on the personal pronouns....asking questions as necessary.

I don't think I am being harsh. I am giving her some advice. And BTW, if you think having babies is stressful, try having a teenager with a drivers license and a car. That's enough to send someone over the edge. KWIM?

As long as you, he and the kids are okay with it...then it's okay.
