When did my baby grow up?

Feb 06, 2009 23:42

Harry is 5 tomorrow. How did that happen? This time 5 years ago I was about to be transferred down to the labour ward.

5 seems like a really big milestone. Even though he effectively stopped being a pre-schooler in September when he was 4 and a half, this seems like a definite marker. But at the same time he often seems so much older than 5. It's really weird.

Stagecoach tomorrow has been cancelled because of the snow, so we have the morning to potter round. In the afternoon family are coming round for a mini-party. Then D's parents are taking Beth back to theirs for the night and all being well with the weather Harry is going to see Les Miz at school (so far only Wed performance has gone ahead due to snow). He came and saw some of the rehearsal last weekend and he is talking about it non-stop. This afternoon he didn't want to watch TV but he sat and listened to the OLC recording!

On Sunday we are taking him and two friends from school to Frankie and Benny's for lunch and then to the cinema to see Bolt (in 3D). Hence Beth is staying with the inlaws as she is too young to come along.

So a big birthday weekend coming up :)

birthdays, harry, growing up
