Day 14
My bubba girl turned 4 yesterday!
I have no idea where that time has gone!
Despite being in lockdown, I think that she enjoyed her day. A few family members has posted their gifts and sent cards, so she was lucky enough to have a little pile of presents to open.
She had some "elsa" balloons (snowflakes) and some bunting. Mum managed to have the number 4 blown up at the corner shop! Yay! I was so grateful and happy after DPD had let me down on the helium canister.
There was a wee incident with the balloon though...
So...Here's what happened...
We walked the dog down to the lane, and Summer took her new birthday car for a spin, we took her helium balloon with us, tied to the spoiler.
Naturally, the ribbon came lose and up floated the balloon! Luckily a nearby tree caught it.... Time for Mummy to save the day!
I took a run up and scaled the hedge, got attacked by thorns and branches in the process, then had to climb the tree to reach the balloon!
I have a few scratches and scrapes and a rather muddy pair of jeans, but a rescued balloon and a happy birthday girl!
Annoyingly the balloon popped on the way down! Never fear, we patched it up with tape and blew it up with air!
We had a video chat with the family, where we all sang Happy Birthday and Summer blew out the candles on her cake.
Its a real shame that we couldn't be with our family as had been originally planned, but I am so thankful that at least Mum was with us and that Summer enjoyed her day.
