I was flying solo today, and played mummy for eleven hours instead of the usual five. While Tyler was at school Kennedy and I went to the playground before picking Bryce up from pre-school and taking him to a birthday party where he was more interested in plastic farm animals than the jumping castle and the strange man with a red nose who perhaps shouldn't have quit his day job. He played quietly inside while the other children ran about the garden.
After school we listened to Disney songs and baked wholemeal gingerbread(ish) cookies. Ty informed me of the properties of "wrestling sugar" and I couldn't help but giggle quietly to myself as I sifted the icing sugar into a plastic bowl.
