Today we celebrated Colette's birthday with a pink horse cake. Tomorrow she gets her first birthday party. I only do parties for the kids when they turn 5, 10, 15, and maybe 20. A formula is sort of developing: party #5 gets a pinata, party #10 is an overnight. I'm thinking about making party #15 something of a rite-of-passage event, acknowledging the son or daughter moving into manhood or womanhood. Today I just enjoy my little girl. She's cute and sweet, and easy to please.
HEY, we do birthday parties for derivatives of 5, too!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! 5 is fun! Hope the party is the best. We start at 5 and do them every other year (friend parties). But, since we are in "odd" years, not sure if I will switch that so we can then have 10,12,14,etc...Emma turns 10 this month so I may change that soon. I really should decide on that soon!
ReplyDeleteRuth,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Collette is Five! Where have the years gone?
We decided we'd do big birthdays at 6, 10 and 13. It's nice to know great minds think alike!
