Welcome to Operation: Avelyn Turns Two in Three Days! central. Sorry (again) for being MIA (again) but I’ve been knee deep S.T.R.E.S.S.I.N.G.O.U.T.
The to-do list is so much longer than the done list that it’s not even funny and as usual my grand ideas have led to more planning and more to-do lists than actual accomplishments. Also as usual, if I am able to pull it all together I just know it will be fabulous. And for my little lady I would put forth nothing less.
For as much stress as this planning process can bring forth, I am having so much fun dreaming it all up. I wish you could see her face when we talk about her party. Her chosen theme (of the bunch I offered to her) is “Owl” and we talk thoughout the day of the impending “Ow pah-tee! Ow pah-tee!”
“Yes, Avelyn”, I say, “We are having an owl party in – days. Are you so excited?”
“Uh huh!” she nods enthusiastically, and my heart melts into a puddle which makes it all worth it.
Here’s to hoping I can pull it together the way I envision it.
Here’s to hoping I don’t lose my mind in the process.
Here’s to hoping it doesn’t rain (literally) on our parade.
Here’s to knowing if it all falls apart that we will have a fantabulous time with our friends and our TWO YEAR OLD anyway.
Oh yeah, I am 29 today!
Happy Birthday Daughter! And let the “hooting” begin for the ow-pawty! Your second birthday party was Carebears where you got every small carebear, the home-made one, Cheer bear, I made for you, and the Carebear car so they could go away to a happy place. Oh the memories! Have a hooting good time. Kiss my favorite happy place– Avelyn!
Love, Nona
