We've always operated an "open house" policy, particularly when we moved into number 20 Swansmede Way. Growing up in a caravan I was embarrassed to invite people over so ended up spending lots of time at my friends houses. Jason and I really want to get to know the children's friends and have some "control" over their social lives so we've always encouraged them to invite friends over. They've really missed not being able to do this since my illness and recovery and finally this week I felt able to do this. Eden chose to invite Ben and Freya Marchant and the girls chose Aniah and Izaak Polland.
They planned what games they would play, the girls decided that Eden should take the boys under his wing and do super hero dress up and the girls decided they would play fairies and dolls houses. They then decided that they would prepare "scrummy mummies" for tea, and I asked them to have a practice run before the day arrived. They really did an excellent job as seen in the photos below. The proof was in the pudding, every plate was empty.
I love how Eden really looks after his guests. He's very good at sharing and ensures that no one feels left out.
The girls played so beautifully together as well. It makes me so proud when I see them being kind and caring to other children.
