She then revealed what the mom-of-two had told them about the gathering. "I was in a bouncy castle, and I saw this 1-year-old inside. I was like, 'Where's your mom?' And this mom on the outside goes, 'Oh, hi! I'm here. I wasn't sure if I should come in."

Meghan shares a heartwarming ritual with Archie on their way back home from preschool which Allison was able to witness.
During the car ride, she wrote: "If he [Archie] forgets to say please or thank you, Meghan reminds him of the manners that make the man."
She then added: "At a stoplight, she [Meghan] reaches into the trunk and produces a brand-new black backpack and hands it to her security detail to give to an unhoused man on the corner.
"They are teaching Archie that some people live in big houses, some in small, and that some are in between homes. They made kits to pass out with water and peanut-butter crackers and granola bars. 'I ate one!' Archie contributes."
The sweet routine will, no doubt, continue now that the family are back home in California, after attending the funeral of Prince Harry's grandmother Queen Elizabeth II.
