On Wednesday, Jean-Baptiste will be 5. To be honest, I am not a big fan of parties. Especially when I have to organise them. I am rather of the boring kind who just enjoy sitting down with a coffee and chat for hours. As a consequence, we had not put much thought into organising a party for him, but last week our friends Alessio and Katy kindly offered us to use their garden if we wanted to do something for him.
So we did prganise something. We invited a handful of friends from school and church at the last minute and had a simple birthday party in their garden, with a couple of games and a few magic tricks by Alessio. It was great, and relaxed, the weather was hot and sunny. The children seemed to enjoy themselves running around and jumping on the trampoline. I even enjoyed myself, chatting and playing around with the kids.
