KBR: Dear DH,

CD+AL

I realize that you're trying to be sweet tonight by going V-Day shopping after work (I'm not an idiot...I know where you are...In all the years we've been together, you've never done anything in advance.).  However, I've been home with a very sick 3yo and a fussy, fussy, fussy 9mo old all day, and what I'd really like is a break.  Can you please just come home now????

I hope he comes home and relieves you, f the present, the present would be giving you a break!
