Edward's 1st Birthday Party!

Jones has a best friend whose name is Edward Anthony Hayward. They've had a wonderful time together in their first year. Fortunately for me, Edward's mother is one of my best friends, Sarah (Green), who I met while working at Amnesty. Sarah and I worked together in the Media Unit and managed to have our babies and our year's maternity leave within six weeks of each other - result. There were some people in the office who thought maybe this was planned...

Edward turned one yesterday and had his party this past Saturday.

Here are some of the snaps. Some of them are pretty good, but some are totally out-of-focus due to my getting to grips with my manual lenses. It was a good time.

** This is a special "hello" to Sarah's Dad if he is reading this! **

Sweet, sweet Sophia, Jones's new other best friend!
