Birthday Party Dilemma
Have you ever wondered how parents of sextuplets plan birthday parties? Cause as I sit here planning six birthday parties for the summer I am totally wondering what they do! For starters, do you throw one birthday party? Two-one for the boys one for the girls? Or do you throw each child their own party? The struggle is real. I think it is a little different in our situation because they aren't actually sextuplets they're just all born in August/the first week of September and that's where the dilemma comes in. I mean I could personally crank out one birthday party after another without a problem, except maybe my wallet hurting, but I have to think about my family members who are going to murder me if I invite them to six birthday parties in two weeks time. So, with that being said I have to break it to my kids that they have to share a birthday party which also causes a dilemma how do we choose a theme? Where do we have it? Do I ask my family to bring six birthday presents? How do you make the decisions for this big of an issue? Maybe I'm overreacting, but in my opinion birthdays are supposed to be all about the kid and I have to somehow make it all about them....and their brothers and sisters! That's tough. I mean our kids share EVERYTHING and now we're asking them to share a birthday party. Don't get me wrong, we will be spending their actual birthday with the individual birthday kid, but how do we go about doing that? Do we get them gifts specifically for that day and don't give them any at their birthday party? Also, cakes do they each get their own cake? I'm struggling hard man! I'm hoping by August I figure out what the heck I'm doing otherwise I'm just going to say no one gets a birthday party because it's too much work! The struggle man the struggle. Wish me luck and pray for Jason because he has to deal with me complaining.
