And imo, it doesn't get better until they are in school full time.
During the preschool years with all three of mine was the most
frustrating, because school was only 3 hours long and all I did
was shuttle back and forth. Learn the fine art of car pooling.

How does that work with carseats though? I can't fit another carseat
into my car to transport another kid.

Also, could you just stay at the school for the time she is there?

Yes, there is a nature center in the same building that has a comfy
reading corner and a birdwatching area with benches. I really should
just go there, and I have actually done that before. I don't know why I
didn't keep doing it. I am just not thinking very well right now.

Why do you think 3-4 hours is too long for a 3-year-old? I bet
she would love it. I know mine did.

I don't think it is too long - for *me*, 3-4 hours is not long enough,
lol! - but she's below the cutoff age for the current school year 3-y.o.
programs. She would have had to be 3 by last December 1.
