Y'all know when it comes to birthday celebrations, my inner RA comes out.
Decorations.
Themed food.
Invitations.
Games.
Music.
The whole shebang.
This year, between covid and fully returning to work, and house projects- I had to stop myself and just acknowledge that I could not do it. And you know what? It was fine. Matter of fact, it was better than fine. This child said it was one of her favorite birthdays!!!
The week before her birthday, she hand wrote her little invitations for 5 friends. We went to a park that no one really knows if we're supposed to play at (long story of mystery, intrigue, investors who disappeared, and a city who wants no liability or responsibility). We had cupcakes. That was it. I didn't even have water! or napkins really, I found some in the car to give to one party goer. Those kids had a great time! Playing and running around outside. Cassidy invited two friends. The parents chatted. The cupcakes were eaten. And all was well!
We also went out to dinner earlier in the week and I did make cupcakes for the actual day. :-)
