I was woken just before 8am by the Mini Mes. As the sun began to flood into my bedroom through a crack in the curtain and blind me, I sat up in bed from my peaceful slumber grudgingly. The Mr chose to do an additional 12 hour shift as overtime at work, much to my disgust, so my hopes of a proper lie in and full English breakfast for just once in a year were soon shattered.
Minxy clambered under the duvet, her cold toes brushing my leg like ice, and presented me with an envelope she had created using floral paper and a staple gun. It contained 3 pairs of silver earrings and a personalised card she had made online. She muttered how they were smaller than she had anticipated and then Jamster gave me a hedgehog card and a flower basket before mentioning something about Minecraft and both scurrying away with their tablets in hand.
I ventured downstairs after a few moments, made myself a bagel and drink which I placed on a pretty new tray, before popping back upstairs in my dressing gown to try to relax for a while. But it wasn't long until I could hear bickering. I called down a few times 'What's going on?' hoping the issue would be resolved quickly but with no response and the volume increasing I had no choice but to throw on some clothes and head down again to investigate. Eye rolls, sighs and tuts included.
