The best laid plans.....

We have been very organised this year. Knowing that it would be Poppins' big day on April 1st. So we wandered out on Saturday and got her a lovely card with lots of pretty little cupcakes on the front....just like the ones she helps Munchkin make on special occasions. We also happen to know that Poppins' has a very big weakness for chock-lyt so we popped a big box of chock-lyt in the bag too.

Come P-Day....disaster. I forget to pop the Poppins' present in the car and we arrive at Poppins' sans present and full of apologies. As a last ditch, I suggest to Mr Poppins' that perhaps a person as lovely as Poppins' requires 2 birthdays like the queen. Mr Poppins' then went to fetch the birthday Poppins'

I popped Munchie on my knee and started to get his coat and hat off while telling him what a special day it was and that he should be especially nice to Poppins on her special day.

Mr Poppins' appeared round the corner and declared "Here she is!" as Poppins' popped her head round the door. Munchkin looked up at her, bounced a'la Tigger on my lap and declared, with a big grin "(H)appy Buff-day Cher!"

Tears and cuddles all round. Another Magic Munchkin Moment!

P/S We were also treated to a rendition of (h)appy buff-day to yeouwwwww! all the way home!
