Scarlett's day began with a pile of presents to open, something she was strangely casual about, preferring to take her time and wait until after her birthday breakfast of - her choice - Tiny Teddy biscuits and orange juice. She got some great clothes, a snorkel and mask and fish to dive for at the bottom of the pool and a waterproof torch from her sister. 'Perfect,' said Scarlett ' for exploring underwater caves.' She's right, of course. From 10 to midday we had a tea party for Scarlett and 4 of her little mates with Rob and I as the entertainment. Never has musical chairs been so politically played and you've have thought we were overseeing the Middle East peace process when it came to What's the time Mister Wolf. We spent the afternoon having a teddy bears' picnic in the garden followed by a pizza and pasta dinner for 13 in nearby Haberfield . Scarlett had a brilliant day, and after we heard our friends Rob and Freya gave birth to a baby girl on the same day, Scarlett greeted that news by declaring it
"the best present ever."
