Hi Rai, glad you are further along with resolving things... smile

I worry that if you go in with a statement like that, she may dig her heels in on dates, just because she can...

For me, I would phrase it as - XW, I'm looking at summer dates and would like to take the kids away on X and Y weeks. If you could confirm this week, I'd appreciate it...
