My DD went to the 3rd birthday party of a nusery friend today. It was actually really lovely, but I was just overwhelmed by how perfect it all was...
It was about 15 kids in their (big!) garden, and they'd decked it out with balloons etc. They had loads of outdoor toys/ climbing frame/ games etc. The party table was all colourful and matching. All the kids behaved really well, sat nicely and ate a yummy party tea. Meanwhile the hostess produced a tray of dips & canappes (sp?) and wine/ beer etc.
Their house was beautiful, and really tidy. Their kids are gorgeous bright and polite...
And when we left DD got a party bag which was really well thought out (not just crap).
As I said, it was absolutely perfect, but I came away feeling sort of overwhelmed - I don't know how these people manage it - they both work full time, and yet they seem to somehow have it 'all together' IYSWIM?
Don't quite know why, but I sort of feel jealous and inadequate as a result??
