I love my children but I've never really been into children. I care for them greatly and they are well looked after but I've realised that they're growing up fast (5yrs and 3yrs) and I hardly spend any time with them.
I take them out and we have fun but at home I'd rather be doing something else or I prioritise chores. I don't naturally enjoy time with children and find it all tedious and frustrating (please don't shoot me. Its just how I feel)
I know I'll regret it when they're older but I need to learn how to do this.
I want to aim to do one thing with them a day where I just focus on them.
Could someone please give me some tips and ideas of what I should do and how to go about this?
