Honestly, my gut reaction was to say "sorry, but we can't make it," as I've done with a few of the indoor playground types of parties that I know just won't have much for Sammie to do. she'd already called the rink and asked if an adult could bring Sammie out on the ice, but understood if we couldn't swing it. Just a few days before, I'd gotten an email from one of Sammie's new classmate's moms saying that her little boy was having an ice skating birthday party and had sent the invites out before school started and wasn't inviting the whole class, but really wanted Sammie to come. If ever there was a day I would like to etch into my memory forever and ever, it would be last Sunday. This year, there will be birthday letters. That show time flying by in the most wondrous of ways. Time flies and all that, and I dropped this ball). With that, I leave you with the collages B created last year for their birthdays when my mind was blown over "5" and "2" (which I'd intended to post with their birthday letters last year but never did.
One that I hope is every bit as fabulous as the one we are putting behind us. She will be a six-year-old, Mia will be three, and we'll have a (joint) "Frozen"-themed party.
Sammie i like it now movie#
She's been ready for her birthday for exactly 12 months (since the last party!) and she's had her party planned for nearly as many months (since the movie Frozen came out, to be exact, at which point, she declared she would definitely have a "Frozen" party), but I feel like I'm never ready to admit that another year has indeed flown past. I'm traveling for work this week (just a quick one-night trip) which always, always leads to weepiness, but when I looked down at the date in the corner of my computer screen this morning and realized how very close we are to Sammie's birthday, my heart skipped a beat. It blows my mind, and I wish I could slow down time (except that each new age keeps getting better).
When people ask how old my kids are, I've already started saying that I have a six-year-old and a three-year-old. In just 5 days, my big girl will be 6, and in exactly 29 days, my little will be 3.
