Ds's (turning 5) best friend at school's birthday party is happening on DS's actual birthday...
The party is a Saturday afternoon do, what can I do to avoid upsetting my son? Will he be upset if mummy does not throw him a party, and yet he is attending someone else's party seeing his best friend being showered in gifts?
DS started reception this year, his best friend in his class is having a birthday party and invited everyone, the boy's mother was well organized and was asking for the list of names of children weeks ago. Of course we are going, they are best friends. I just didn't expect it to happen on that day, and of course how was the other mummy to know..
I didn't have time to organize a party for my son this year, was going to do a family meal with cake and presents; myDH just mentioned why don't I talk to the other mum and have a joint party, we are new to this, I am not sure if this would sound rather untoward, the other mummy has done all the work, given out invites .. on the other hand I can bring in an entertainer or something to make the party bigger, we are new to this, please would you suggest?
