Kid's birthdays are out of control (I'm in London) and I cannot be bothered.
How do I outsource all of this shit? My daughter's birthday is right before Christmas, she's quite sensitive and loves both her birthday and Christmas, but it makes the whole thing quite fraught. Lots of people are away and busy and I think she feels like an afterthought even though I've tried.
It's all on me to make it special, how do I teach her to appreciate the small things when her mates are getting limousines to themed afternoon teas or actual real unicorns attending.
