It’s DD’s sixth birthday coming up and I’m stuck for what to do. I’m totally overthinking it and tying myself in knots about it (I’ve just had DC3, so I think hormones are making me silly and sleep deprivation is stopping me from being able to think it all through logically!) So I need to hear what others do.
Do you do a party every year? How do you/your DC decide who to invite? How much do you spend? Do you spend less on a gift if your DC wants a party? The whole thing is made tricky because DD doesn’t have a best friend/close group of friends so I’d feel bad limiting the guest list and think I’m going to have to end up hiring a hall and inviting the whole class. And I’m not sure how I’m going to organise all that with a five week old baby to look after!
