Happy Birthday, my little man!
July 30, 2008As of 6:30(ish) this morning, I am the mother of a 5 year old. Which is hard to believe and easy to believe, all at the same time.
As part of my effort to have a party that required as little effort on my part as possible (this is something that takes approximately 5 years to learn), we convened at the local Magic Mountain.
Which is on the short list of places that could be considered for me should they run out of room in hell.
But, Fisher really really REALLY wanted to have his party there, and I decided that 10:30 on a Wednesday morning shouldn’t be TOO awful. And I was right, it really wasn’t too bad. All in all, there was minimal chaos, and all I had to do was make goody bags. My mom made the cupcakes, so I didn’t even have to worry about that.
We intended for it to be a small party, but little kids generally have a lot of siblings (and I hardly expected people to get babysitters for them. Plus, we like them!) …so in the end I think we had over 20 kids in attendance.
Everyone had fun, and I survived without experiencing a panic attack or the need for a mid-day cocktail, so I think we can call that success.
Happy Birthday, Fisher.
You are the silliest, sweetest, cutest 5 year old boy around. You make me crazy proud every single day.
