My daughter's having some friends over next week for some birthday drinks. These are her 4 closest pals and it makes my heart swell the love and bond they all share as she is an only child. They are the most loveliest, responsible mixed bag of young people I've ever met.

The man and I will be in the backyard with a bonfire going roasting spuds and marshmallows because I don't feel comfortable about leaving them on their own considering 3 of them are slightly under the drinking age. (And yes, I do have permission from their parents).

Also I'll be making them some cocktails but they will be a little on the weaker side. They won't know that though.

As responsible as you are you're still allowed to bring up embarrassing childhood stories at the worst time.

Of course. And I do.
