It was Pixie the Unicorn’s birthday today, apparently.
I am always on the lookout for a slice of joy excuse, so we baked a batch of heavenly Mond Vol Soet choc chip cookies, lit a candle, and celebrated Pixie’s happy day.
I’ve been noticing, lately, how my kids are always ready to enter into make believe, to celebrate the tiniest of things, to hunt out joy in the often same-old same-old of another lockdown. We go for a walk and suddenly we’re skipping, go to a park and it’s actually a circus… As much as possible, I’m trying to channel this spirit of play… Particularly when it involves a still-warm-from-the-oven cookie in the sunshine!
