Just a quickie...
I told my kids I'd take them to their favouirte resteraunt today. I told them this yesterday and I was awoken this morning by them fighting, messing around downstairs, things getting knocked over, DS2 threatening DS1, glasses being taken and hidden, frequent trips upstairs to tell me (who was still in bed, it WAS early!) what each other had done as if it was all just one big joke.
Now this trip to the restraunt would cost me around £30 and TBH, this week it will be a stretch and will make me skint for the rest of the week.
Now I'm thinking why should I take them when they can't even behave downstairs on their own? they're 9 and 7 so not babies either.
But I did promise...so am I being harsh in NOT taking them or should I blame myself for not being up early enough and take them anyway?
