Default one on one time with each child?

Do you spend one on one time with each one of your children every day?

Chandler (7) has asked that I spend time with "just her" every day. I've been trying to do this. I'm not doing well.

I had been spending one on one time with her before she asked. . .just not every day, more like a few times a week. It was also unstructured, so to speak, well, unscheduled is more what I'm trying to say. As in, at night when Maddux (4) went to bed early or if Truman (6 months) was napping and Maddux was involved with something, etc. Trying to schedule it every day, though, is difficult, especially considering we only have "14" hours to our day (after 10 hours of sleep for her). Factor in meals, clean-up, school, gymnastics/dance classes, free time, outside play, etc. . . .

What do y'all do?

Maddux (4) has not specificially asked for this. She seems to be fine getting "me alone" whenever she does. Chandler takes gymnastics more, so we have that time. Overall, she's less intense and not as emotionally high maitenance as Chandler, so if I could get over the "need to give them both the time" idea, that might help. Or maybe I do need to make sure I'm giving them each one on one time. . . and then try to figure out how to do that when Truman gets a bit older and give him time as well. . .

:/ :/
