Once the kid is about 5 or 6, don't they just want a party with their own friends, without any adults getting in the way, except to chaperone and serve them cake? Just how old are the kids at these kiddie parties that Bushie goes to?
The one tonight turned 4 today. I will be attending her brother's party in November and, depending on the Thanksgiving family schedule, her foster sister's party also in November. The young man will be 12 and the young lady will be 11. The next one after that is in February for a 9 year old. Then, their mother (my cousin) will be 30 in April so I've got about 8-10 birthdays a year to go to plus Bible Studies every other Friday night (the best way to spend a Friday night, IMO) and now the occasional kid sitting, which I have a feeling I will be doing more of in the weeks and months to come.
