Welp. The birthday party turned out how I anticipated. 3 friends showed up. Only one was a classmate, the other was the classmates brother, and then an old friend from day care.
What’s most ANNOYING about it is… we just got home from a friend’s birthday party and so many kids from Gwen’s class were there. Needless to say, Gwen was very upset. We talked about it on the way home. Her sweet self was like, “it makes me feel like they thought my party was going to be boring.”
When your kids hurt… it’s a different kind of hurt. This is why birthday parties are just not it for us anymore. We prefer to take her on a weekend trip to create better core memories.
