that would have worked if he'd known in advance that she was going to need the lie-in. As it was, seems that he did his best to hold the kids back a bit (not easy at their age).
Kev - in my house you'd be a saint for going to all that trouble! Having had my birthday, christmas, valentine's day and other special occasions all passed by, it would have been fantastic.
But if my boys do something nice for me and I'm not quite in the mood for it, I always try and let them know that their efforts are appreciated anyway.
