After School Play Date

My 4-year-old son, T, invited a friend home from school for tea for the first time the other day. It made me realise how grown up he is becoming. Up to now I have been the one to choose his playmates (mainly the children of my friends) but now he is choosing his own friends. His friend was a lovely boy - polite and well behaved - and they played beautifully together. They dressed up as pirates and played snakes and ladders. T has already told me the name of the next child he wants to invite (a girl this time). T is a popular boy so it looks as if this could be the first of many play dates.

Isn't it wonderful. Osiris has been making friends and seems to be at someones house every week. I spin out though because I live in a big mess in a falling down rented building. I wonder what the mums think of me. It's hard to put the whole 'spend my time on giving my children attention than having a spotless house' philosophy across to a 4 year old who's looking at a washing pile and saying "You'll get rats in your house" which is obviously what his mum told him about his bedroom.
