Birthday weekend

My children birthdays are never just one day. It usually lasts at least a week.

First there is the family party. This entails having the whole gang here at once. Is this fun? Not really, but we do it for the kids.

Second is the party at school. This requires mom to bring some sort of goodie to the class. Most of the time, I make something. This year I'm going with store bought all the way.

Third, the party with the friends. Since I've taken my son to waaaayyyy too many birthday parties this month, we've decided NOT to have a friend party this year. This has caused me tremendous guilt, but I am also pretty relieved. Instead we are talking the little guy to the miniature golf place. This may sound like fun, but only if you like lots of noise. All those video games in one room....it should really be outlawed. (Ok, now I'm just showing my age...cuz that is something my mom would have said.)

Anyway, this is the birthday weekend...Who said he could grow up anyway?

later.......
