The Soft Play Circle of Trust

When you enter a soft play establishment, do you enter the 'soft play circle of trust'? In what other situation would you willingly leave your bag and its contents (which always contains something importantly however well you pack) unattended and completely out of sight? Today I took E to soft play for the first time solo. We go regularly with friends and bag minders, but never just me, her and the bag. We took off our shoes and off we went. And obviously she wanted to play everywhere we couldn't see our bag, and go and everything that was, by very nature, bag unfriendly.


Is there an unspoken rule that irrespective of your criminal tendencies, you do not thieve in the soft play area? Or do we trust that as a group of parents in a similar situation, we just wouldn't do it to one another?


I didn't give a thought to my bag for 45 minutes while I got friction burn on my heels going on the big bumpy slide.


What a trusting character I must be. A fully fledged member of the Soft Play Circle of Trust, that I may have just founded myself.

Brief letters

Dear Jasper-dog,

Please stop insisting on eating E's crayons. Crayola aren't cheap and I'm positive that they're not good for you innards.

***

Dear E,

Why must you ALWAYS get poo on the trousers I love you in most? Do you hate them? Is this your first attempts at rebelling against the clothes I choose for you?

***

Dear Facebook,

Stop trying to trick us with your updates and hashtags. I will not have my security compromised.

***

Dear new parents, particularly ones known to me,

Please stop making such beautiful babies. They're making me broody and my ovaries ache. 

***

Dear bank account,

Please stop hiding my money. I worked hard for that.

***

Dear husband,

Thank you for supporting me. Thank you for backing me up. Thank you for being so kind, and caring and helpful. Thank you for being everything a husband and a father should be. 

***

Dear E,

Thank you for another perfect Friday. You were so well behaved and so good with Baby Lyra. You had us in stitches over lunch.

I'm sorry I wasn't watching you when I fell off the bench and split your lip. Well done for being such a trooper.

***

Dear weather,

Make your mind up. The washing is on the line and I really would prefer it dry, not sodden. I'd like to go out in my summer wardrobe without wellingtons and raincoats. If you must rain, just rain from offset and we'll call today a write-off.

***

Dear Old Armchair,

Please fit in the car. I really don't fancy driving you to another county on top of the Fiat Panda. I'm not sure it's all that safe, but even if it is, I will feel a muppet driving such a huge chair on top of such a tiny car.
