Holly was sixteen at the weekend.She spent her birthday delayed in a French airport waiting to get a flight back from her language study trip to Nice, with a quick tour of
She was due to be home late evening giving us a little time to celebrate, but by the time she landed it was three in the morning the following day, and her birthday had passed.
A pity, but her friends and teachers celebrated with her at Nice airport with the free meal vouchers that the airline gave them, and we opened presents and cards when she arrived home, going to bed around five-thirty, just as the birds were beginning to twitter.
So the day after her birthday became Holly’s birthday celebration day. Here she is blowing out the candles on the little cake we got for her. We could only fit eight candles on its chocolate strewn surface, so she had to blow them out twice.
Happy birthday Holly – and no you don’t look a dork in the pictures, you look great. Now, make a wish!
