It has been way too long since my last post. Since then we have had one birthday but loads of other things have happened as well. Today however was a day for fireworks. Ideally we would like to do this tomorrow, but we are going to be busy tomorrow and we may not have the time to enjoy them.
We had some fireworks left over from last year, but did by some big ones. I do not think the kids were too impressed with the small ones, but they loved the big ones.
This did bring back memories for me as when my parents were together, we never got to enjoy fireworks. When they split, we got to use them. However living in a flat, we got to use sparklers and it was later that we were able to go to firework displays.
While we drove around Colchester so that the kids could see the fireworks of others, it brought back those memories and just how lucky I was that my mother allowed us to enjoy fireworks in the way my father did not. And we managed to enjoy them in a safe manner.
