Godchild, New School Bag and Cake


Goddaughter will start school this year and I wanted to be the one to get the school bag for her. Those school bags are a huge deal here. You have to make sure they are approved by some educational (big enough? All the books fit in?), medical (perfect fit? Not too heavy? Doesn't strain the back?), environmental (toxins?) and police (reflectant stripes?) agencies. And of course it has to be pink and lovely for the girls and cool and tough looking for the boys. It took us quiet a while to find the perfect one but I think we found it in this one:


Afterwards, son and I took her to a little cafe and had hot chocolate and chocolate cream cake. I think she was on a sugar high by the time we drove her home, because she kept on giggling and telling us funny jokes about monkeys and monkey poop.
