Sleepover!!

[macdoodle]

Now!!!!
I have FIVE 7yr old girls upstairs in DD1 bedroom - they have been here since 5pm - have played, run riot, watched DVDs, played on the Wii, had pizza and ice cream....
They are now all on one bed watching another DVD on little portable DVD with popcorn - I can hear banging and squabbling - they MUST be tired, I know I am
I am ready for bed - is it reasonable to go up insist they go to bed and switch light off?? Help !

You know what i do? I go into the sleep over room, with my book and my cup of tea. I settle myself down and read. The sleepover people have to lie very quiet and still while i am reading my book.....

It works every time.

If you were feeling very generous, you could go and read them a story - a very soporific one....
