Valentines in August
Aug. 26th, 2008 11:02 pmMaggie had a Valentine's party today.
This was her idea, from last week. She found the leftover Valentines from last year, and decided to make them into invitations for all the family. She wanted to throw a Valentine's party, in her room. Today. The schedule was for 4 pm, she said, but that got pushed back a bit to wait until her Daddy came home. She'd told her godmother about it, and she called me today to ask was this really true? I said yes.
Why not? She can celebrate Valentine's day in August if she likes. And I love her very much. So I went out today and picked up some paper plates and cups and napkins in pink and Disney princess hearts, and a roll of crepe paper and some balloons, and a cupcake cake and some punch. And we threw a party in her room. The six of us plus her godmother. We had a good time. Nice for Maggie to get to be a hostess. Alanna really enjoyed things.
