It's kind of weird not being able to wish him Happy Birthday in person, and see him open his pressie. This time last year, I was done with exams and at home.
When we were younger, we felt bad for Dad, having a birthday overshadowed by Christmas preparations, so Mum never let us put up the tree until after, and I always used to give Dad the chocolate out of my advent calendar on his birthday. But Dad has never himself been all that bothered I don't think. And I'm pretty sure he's going to be away when it's my birthday, so all is ok haha! We actually went out for dinner to celebrate when I was home a couple of weeks ago, and I bought him a present and card and left them in the (hopefully capable) hands of my wee sister, so hopefully he'll like them. Gutted to be missing cake though!
I was a bit of a Daddy's girl as a kid, and it was cute looking back at old pictures of us together earlier this year, for a MoonPig Fathers' Day card. So I thought I'd share the wee collage here too. Wasn't I adorable? Haha.
Exams are almost over! I have my last one tomorrow. Both my flatmates (and the majority of my friends) are now totally done, which is making me slightly jealous, but I just need to find the motivation to keep going for another 24 hours and then it will all be over!
I'm procrastinating writing this, so I think I'm going to have to cut it here. But as of tomorrow I'm a freeeee elf! Roll on tomorrow night!
Back to my stack of literature for now. When I get home on Saturday, I'm going into full Chrimbo mode! (move over, birthday boy, it's Jesus' turn)
