Today I received an invitation for a 1 year old birthday party. A hall has been hired, guests are expected to turn up and coo over the oblivious one year old . I never bothered with this for my kids, I waited until they could understand/enjoy their birthday before bothering with a party. I did take them round to see close family/grandparents on their birthday though.
I called 1yo mum and asked whether I could visit on another day as they live two hours away so I'd get more chance to chat and catch up with her then, also play with her ds. She said no, she wants everyone there for the party, she'd like everyone to enjoy seeing her ds open his presents and she doesn't have time to see me on another day. She's expecting 30 or so guests.
So aibu to be a bit about the point of a party for a one yo?
