As a special treat, after dinner, homework, and bath, we watched The Incredibles until the end (1 hour after bedtime) and I let them eat candy. Maybe I'm softening in my old age, but it was a special treat for the kids and me, spending quality time together during the week.
I'd love to retire and be able to do things like that regularly while they're still young. Maybe next year, maybe next year.
