40 years ago, a little boy was born...
My loveliest hunka hunka... and when he's clean shaven he looks no older than 18...
I've made him a huge, calorific chocolate cake, and will make him one of his favourite meals for dinner. No candles, he is allergic.
Tonight he will spend some time opening his pressies... I have got him all kinds of little gifts - shaving brush, Spurs gym bag (his English football team for you non Brits), Sharks tshirt (his Saffa rugby team for you non Saffas), latest Springbok shirt (I assume y'all know who they are...?), wireless stereo headphones for gym, 1971 Top of the Pops CD, C-130 Hercules flight simulator game, Around the world in 80 gardens DVD by Monty Don, Jack Russel mouse mat... all individually wrapped... he will kill me... haha
Ah the joy!
Tomorrow night he is going out with the lads for some drinks... and Saturday night we are going with family to Shaka Zulu Restaurant, a fab and funky new restaurant/nightclub in Camden Town. Will dance the night away... me in heels eek! That's rare.
No big parties for him, quite low key for such a big birthday. But then that's him. Less fuss as possible. Hence me going overboard with the pressies!
Me... I like a little fuss :)
What's your preference? Low key or a little fuss?

What a fabulous review!
A client wrote this review of me. I was nearly in tears when I read what she'd written. Feel so honoured to be a part of children's lives, and realising the impact I could possibly have on an adult's life too. Humbling.
People lead such busy lives, they most often do not have the time to say how they feel, and I assume much goes unnoticed/taken for granted... and then I get this incredible token of appreciation and I realise NOTHING is not seen and all is appreciated. The big things as well as the small.

~~ THE REVIEW~~
'Better than good!
The good rating is not enough to describe how fantastic Jen is.
My daughter has been with her for approx 1 year now and is so excited to see Jen every time we drop her off. The kids have so much fun each day and come home with a diary of their daily activites, what they ate etc... which is so lovely to read. Jen creates a very loving, caring and educational environment. Even the kids hug each other hello each day!
One of the many things I love about Jen is that she sends me photos of my daughter during the day which brightens my work day beyond belief.
Jen is also accomodating with extra days of care which can be quite helpful.
I cannot rate her high enough. I know both my daughters life and mine are enhanced by having Jen in it.'
