10apples,
You shouldn't feel guilty about wanting more time with your daughter. Your reasons of why you haven't put her in preschool are not only valid but important. It sounds like you do a lot of activities with her and what fun for a naturally curious little one to explore! And nothing is more magically, for me anyway, than revisiting a place and seeing it through DD's eyes.
I completely understand where you are coming from with the constant reading. Most of DD's life has evolved around books and it has become an obsession for her. Might be the reason I was rushing her to read... to give myself a break!
