They don't go to the steps for those though<br /><br />MT - It is all about the planning. Tea first, then action, then step...<br /><br />MAM - I tried. They weren't buying.<br /><br />CW - fizzy drinks...<br /><br />Mummy - like Eve's game very much. Can she come round and teach the boys?<br /><br />TM - always with the tea.<br /><br />cl - can't believe you haven't already. Sometimes I want to install a Daddy one that Daddy can be sent to too.<br /><br />Mwa - mine roll around in hysterics, and, tragically, I also find it funny. Must get out more.<br /><br />Nicola - get it ready first, then behave badly, then go to the step. Adam brings me a book sometimes.<br /><br />LCM - We all need our peace and quiet. They'll understand when they are older.<br /><br />Kathryn - I used to go to church as they had a creche and I could stare into space for an hour or so and therefore I'd done the Sunday morning stint before coming home and handing them over to dave because 'I've had them all morning!'. He never worked it out.<br /><br />NVG - it is worth it.<br /><br />Troutie - planning is key. Like making sure the tea is ready first.<br /><br />HCM - Mine used to put their toy cars on the step. All lined up. Oh dear...<br /><br />ZA - same fundamental idea though, you get 'punished' and get some peace and quiet. Yes!<br /><br />WJ - the bedroom for a nap. I like the way you are thinking.Dorset Dispatcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10457466586411004146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3519883976018465014.post-13541806642027476122009-10-01T23:37:36.517+02:002009-10-01T23:37:36.517+02:00Liking this and all these ideas.
