Grace's Party

Zoë and I - and Jon and Joe - all went to Grace's party at Delph Cricket Club. We'd only been there about half an hour when Nino called to asked where we were and said she'd come down to the party. She duly arrived much to Zoë's surprise (as I'd told her Mummy wasn't coming) and then mostly stayed outside on the cricket pitch playing with Zo and not involving her in the party. I went and asked her to bring her in so that she could get involved.

All went smoothly then until Nino said she wanted to come to Emma's party the next day at Cheeky Chimps. I told her I'd rather she didn't as there would be a number of the 'Delph Tots' mums there who would feel uncomfortable in our company - as she'd told me before. I thought it important that the party was Zoë's day with her friends and I didn't want anything to spoil that. Nino complained that she'd been invited and so she wanted to go. I thought it best for Zo that she didn't go, besides, Sunday is the only day that I get to spend with Zo on my own.
