Reunited

We saw Ana for the first time in a few weeks at a birthday party. We thought that Alex and she would have forgotten about each other (in the way that parents do with their children, although their children aren't usually 6 when that happens). However, she'd been away visiting relatives for a couple of weeks, and apparently hadn't stopped talk about Alex.

Alex was in the play structure, which was, as these things tend to be, very mazelike. They spent a little while pursuing each other, only to pass with mesh in between. Finally, they were reunited in that most romantic of places, the ball pool.

They were very pleased to be back together again.

The birthday party proper happened in a different room. Almost all the children sat on one table together where they ate pizza and cake. Alex and Ana sat on another table, mostly on their own.
