A great birthday....

It was a really simple birthday..... loads of books and one PSP game for F and a big box of choccies for my Mum.  

I did go ALL OUT on the decorating though.  10 pre-printed "Happy Birthday" balloons spaced out along the hallway.  No wonder H accused me of making more effort for F's birthday than I ever do for his.


My plan was to spend hours baking a cake (it takes a long time to open the box and add the cup of oil and one egg), but our wonderful WONDERFUL cleaning lady brought this extravagent sugar-hit with her when she came to work today!  Honestly.... it would have cost her far more than we pay her!  

Oh, and no word from DH.  I guess it's too difficult to make sure you're near a phone when your youngest child hits double digits.

Simple birthdays are the best.

A little brown-eyed birdy told me that F didn't even mention his special day at school...

Yeah.... he told me that himself. I asked him if Mrs Frazzle made a fuss of him on his special day, and he told me that she didn't even know about it. Hmmmm. Didn't get that from me.
