[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH used to get home at 6, but my kids were sound sleepers. Usually up at 8-9, were always so patient and waited until he woke (always earlier than usual around 11-noon) in the late morning. I would let them tear into stockings beforehand, being sure to put at least one thing they wanted in there. We’d keep busy watching movies and eating cookies, preparing food. When dad woke, we’d dig into brunch and open presents. After the hustle and bustle, DH would take a nap. It was always just our normal. [/quote] PP again, I forgot to add, in your case, I would assume you wait to open until he’s home, and he just goes to bed later. He will be OK, the kids will learn patience and understanding, and all will be well. I promise![/quote]
