Lockdown. Social Distancing. Isolation. Covid-19. Coronavirus.
Not phrases I was expecting to talk about on the blog, or at all come to mention it. I think it’s fair to say some of these terms the vast majority of us weren’t even aware existed before February 2020 never mind hearing them in every sentence uttered in the last two months.
Yet here we are
For her 9th birthday Eva decided she wanted a sleepover. Easy right?
We’ve never actually had a sleepover at all. She likes her space when she sleeps and the closest she’s ever got is camping with Eddy and another family where she shared her tent with a friend. Yet here she was asking for not one, not two, but SEVEN of her friends to sleepover at our house. Not JUST a sleepover *insert M&S advert voiceover here*. No. A sleepover party.
When the Harry Potter obsession continues but you did not have the time to commit to the Pinterest worthy hand made hedwig costume that was requested due to an ear operation gone wrong and a couple of weeks of poorly girl at home recovering…you just have to improvise. Professor McGonagall it is.
