It's my party

Child#4 has a temperature, cough and tummy full of snot. Which he has expelled at volume a number of times today.

Having weighed up the pros and cons, I let husband#1 take children#1-3 out for my birthday lunch, while I sat on the sofa having cuddles.

This is the birthday picnic tea they made me. During the eating of which child#4 chucked up a beaker of milk.

We have not had cake yet.
