School holidays
A break from our normal Saturday routine yesterday, so my daughter and her younger cousin went for a bike ride . . and stayed out for over seven hours 😊
They turned up shortly before 6pm, exhausted, covered in mud, and apparently so paralysed by the giggles that they couldn't even tell me where they'd been 😅 I rinsed off the worst of the mud in the garden, put them into a hot bath, and felt only mildly resentful that I hadn't been invited 🙂
Later I was given my orders for supplying hot chocolate and other treats for a midnight feast.
Me: Ah, so L*** is staying the night, is she? 🙂
Daughter: Well she can't very well go home like THAT, can she? [waves in direction of small cousin wearing borrowed pyjamas three sizes too big].
No, I suppose not 🙂
Put my head around door of daughter's bedroom shortly after 10pm. Both girls fast asleep, as predicted, so hot chocolate can wait until the morning 😴🤗
