I have been in business almost 2 years, and I have to decide if I should re-register with all the lovely paperwork.

Right now, I have two 15-month-olds, two days apart in age, two days a week, a 3 year old and my 4 year old daughter. I am currently listening to one cry while the other sleeps, and then the other cry while the other one sleeps. I am tired of having my house "company ready," I am tired of trying to give my daughter enough attention so she doesn't feel super jealous of the other kids, I am tired of parents bringing sick kids and then going "oh, they're sick?", I am tired of sciatica/back issues from picking up heavy kids...I am just tired. We are moving in the next year, and I am wondering if I should go on just to make it financially until then. I used to really love my business, and was excited. But now, my husband has some issues from all his deployments, and it is just getting to be too much. I need a job where I make $2,000 a month but still be able to take care of my daughter until kindergarten in the fall.

Any suggestions?

Read the provider burn out section. It really does help to read it. That's all I got.
