In a few hours an exceedingly excited boy will come bounding down the stairs, burst through balloons and streamers into........5 years old.
I truly do not know how this has happened, it can't be five years since I gave birth... that was only a wee while ago, surely!
Alackaday!
So this birthday eve, and New Year's eve has seen this mama, battling a heaving supermarket, after it was decided at the 11th hour to throw Rye a proper birthday part at a friend's house, tomorrow. It's seen this mama tidying up, wrapping presents, rolling and decorating a beeswax birthday candle.
Mustn't forget the glittery painted crown either, waiting for a 5yr old head.
Notice the wee Lightening McQueen car... very chuffed with that, making such a small car out of beeswax was very fiddly. I think a Car mad little boy will be pleased as punch.
Even more so when he see's this little lot:
Under the red silk is a sit on sand digger. Really looking forward to seeing his face when he sees it.
And later at the party, among other foods, there will be star sandwiches:
But most importantly, a Rainbow, Pirate Snowman and Lighten McQueen cake......
And now one tired mama is gonna snooze on the sofa.
(Still quite a bit of party food to prepare, so need to be up early...hence sofa!)
