#4 of 5

--- My #4 of 5 will be celebrating her 3rd birthday this Tuesday. It amazes me how time goes by so fast. We'll just be sharing the day with a few friends. Pizza, cake, ice cream and a few games. We've decided to pass on the big birthday bash. She's turning three and will only play with familiar kids. Why invite a bunch of kids she doesn't know? We've done that for so many birthdays. We have gone through MANY birthday parties with the 4 of 5 kids and only now realize that the celebration is just as special with fewer folks. We've been through rentals and reservations, hiring and firing, auditions and agonizing party detailing. DUH!! Decorate, order some pizzas, have cake and ice cream, a pinata, pass out bags full of goodies and let the kids run off the sugar. Simplicity! Who would have ever thought it? I sure hope it goes that simply.
