Mom Talk

 So the aforementioned (in a prior post) birthday party is scheduled for October 11^th at our local Chuck E. Cheese’s. As I continue on with party planning I am amazed at how much it costs. My daughter wants Little Einsteins plates and party hats so I placed the order for those today. Unfortunately, I don’t think we can get a Little Einsteins cake because it’s copyrighted. That’s no fun. So in addition to the expense of the party, we also have decorations, cake and ice cream, invitations and gifts. It costs a lot to have a birthday but then again, we’re only doing a “blowout” this year because her birthday falls on a Saturday. Next year, it’s back to cake and ice cream in the dining room at home with a few close friends and family members.
