a present

lately i have had birthday party on the brain. not mine but miss molly's birthday party. should we do only family? what about families with children? smash cake or cupcake? color scheme? what about molly's nap schedule? etc.

the other day driving home from work i thought about gifts for her and trying to zero in on "needs" not "wants."  as a parent i want to give molly the world. i really really do. i want to lavish her with baby dolls and toys that spark her interest and imagination. i love seeing her eyes light up at a new "thing" even if that thing is a paper towel roll or baby doll hairbrush.

looking on Pintrest the other day i spotted THIS and i really wish that i could purchase it for her birthday. i know she is too young to appreciate it but it would be really awesome to have.

do your remember them?

  1. 1. Family, families with children, and friends! Make it a party!
    2. Cupcake that Molly can smash and eat herself. Pretty cake for guests.
    3. Dont feel guilty about not being able to lavish Molls with toys. That's what her bday guests are for! Youre throwing a party in her honor and she will feel loved and have those memories forever. Waaaay more important than a toy she'll play with for a few months.
