Emily is 13!

We had a lovely day- a lazy morning of presents and coffee then a trip to a cafe, and finally she had a house full of friends for a party- a kind of Goth fairy party as far as I could see.

For the first time ever, her parents were not required to actually run the party- she did it all herself- meeting, greeting, party gaming and all.

I am very proud of her.

If a little redundant.

Our role in the affair was to clean up afterwards.
