My daughter’s birthday is next week and we are getting ready for her party. We have always done birthdays for my daughter as big as we can because she wasn’t supposed to be here for any, so every birthday for her is truly a celebration.
We start preparing months In advance by letting her pick a theme and getting all the decorations and stuff needed for the party. Her grammy (wife’s’ mom) is the one that truly makes this all happen, she buys most of the decorations and comes over to help get everything ready, plus she sets the agenda and leads in the games and activities. She does this because she wants to, we try to help her but I think we just get in the way so now we just stand back and help when asked. We invite between 40-60 people and really have a big party, this year is going to be Hanna Montana themed and we all have to dress up like rock stars. We will have karaoke for all who dare and even guitar shaped balloons.
I wish I had birthdays like this growing up; it will truly be her day to feel special. That happens less than it should with the quads in the house. Speaking of them, we now have to do their birthdays like that too so they don’t feel any less love from us. Thankfully we have grammy there to help with all the setup, their birthday is already to go and it is still 3 months away. At least we only have to do one party for all four, otherwise it could get ugly.
