Birthday disaster!!

Well, today is the day, Elias has turned three today! And, as any parent knows you shouldn’t leave assembling the star present to the night before – but we forgot the golden rule and did just that.

We bought a slide for him, the perfect gift, only trouble was that it seemed impossible to fix together. What made it worse was that Elias spotted it and was devastated that he could not play on it. After getting two engineers to try again to and assemble it and them also concluding it couldn’t be done it is now back in it’s box ready to be returned.

How frustrating for a three year old to be bought the perfect gift and then have it taken away again! I only hope that we can just replace it with a similar one TODAY! Oh, I feel like an awful parent!

Well, the slide was returned, another type bought, and it took all of 5 minutes to assmeble! When Elias wakes up he'll be over the moon! Disaster is officially over.
