We usually put the kids to sleep in their room. Very often one or both of them will sneak back into our room. If it happens after they have been asleep a while, V and I let them get into our bed with us. If they haven't slept at all, we ask them to go back to their room and stay in bed.
One night A2 comes into our room, obviously not having slept at all and V asked him to get back into his room. He says 'But I want to tell Mummy something". V says "Ok, go ahead'. A2 scrambles into bed, lies next to me, gives me a tight hug and says "I want to sleep with you, Mummy". It would have taken a person with a much stronger will than mine to order him back to his bed after that.
