The Birthday Party Checklist

Birthday Party Checklist;

  • Balloons (of the helium variety so when the kids are in bed you can inhale them and fool yourself it was worth spending £20 on glorified air)
  • Cake (not just any cake but THE cake. You know, the cake that symbolises the kind of Mother you are. How much you love your child, how great your domestic skills are, your ability to create under pressure; these are all considered by your nearest and dearest while they aptly devour your cake/heart in front you...)
  • Presents (oh god, the toys!! All now needing a new home, that YOU are going to have to find.
  • Invites (that you hope child is going to help you make but you end up doing them and trying to authenticate them by sticking the stickers on at dodgy angles and writing with your left hand)

  • Sedatives

If you only remember the sedatives your doing well....
