[quote=Anonymous]I think your best bet is to be as non-specific as possible. If you are caught in a lie, that won't go over well. But I also think you need to set some boundaries clearly. Something like, "Oh thanks, mom, that's really kind of you! We already have that taken care of. We're going to be so busy that day that we might not be answering the phones, much less the door. Let's get together when we get back. Would you like to have Sunday dinner with us? The kids can tell you all about the trip!"[/quote]
