Party Plans

There's going to be a party...the only thing I don't know is when and I'm also not overly sure of where either.

What I do know is that there are going to be four V.I.P guests: Jade, Callum, Kieron and me.

The table will be laden with everyone's favourite food: chicken Korma, mushroom Stroganoff, fajitas and Betty Crocker chocolate cake for Jade. Kentucky Fried Chicken, risotto, pancakes, strawberry cheescake and Orios for Callum. Pancakes, pasta, scrambled eggs, bacon, rice, profiteroles and Slush Puppies for Kieron. Me: just watching my children will be enough of a feast for me.

There's going to be silly string, water fights, balloons to jump on, a bouncy castle and a snow machine so that we can make snowmen.

After everyone's eaten, my mum and dad will turn up and bring us up to date with everyone's exploits and there will be chrysanthemums for my mum and Mars bars for my dad as well as my eternal gratitude for looking after Kieron for us.

More guests will arrive: my grandparents, Callums's other grandparents, two former boyfriends of mine from my teens and twenties, friends of my dad who my kids knew, Jade's french godfather...the list could go on for ages.

So, I don't know when or exactly where this amazing party will be, but I can't wait.
