1 step forward 1000 steps back - part 4

[Barrybran]

Previously we had agreed that we would each take 1 of the last two weeks in August off to take care of the kids (S7 camps end). Suddenly, H says to me 'so when I'm off with the kids next week do you want me to just keep them the whole time?'

I'm not sure this helps, mdu, but I read this the same way your husband did. What care arrangement for the kids did you have in mind when you agreed to take those weeks off?
