What a horrible Saturday
| Mon, 03-01-2004 - 7:43am |
My son had his 5th bday party on Saturday. We had it almost a week before his bday so his dad could be home to celebrate it with him.
Well, he ended up leaving that day to go back to work :( So that started things off bad.
Then only 3 kids showed up out of 12 that said they would come. I was so disaapointed cause I went out and bought all this stuff for the kids, and then they did not show. Andrew was also upset that his friends did not show up.
The one bad thing about that is, they didn't even bother to say they were not coming.
The one of the kids that did show up, his mom just dropped him off and then left.... ugh I guess she thought this was adaycare party. She did not even call about him till 4 hours later, not even coming to get him or join the party. She lives right across the street and said she could not come cause she felt dirty from working out. No prob there, but she could have took a shower and then came over, right?
I had to call her to come and get him, at 5pm, and then she tried to get him to stay the night grrrrrrrr.
I have 2 kids of my own, to watch alone, mind you one is only 12 weeks old, and she wants me to watch hers too?? All because she wants to go out for her bday with her husband.
Well, sorry for the long vent.
I just wish things had turned out better for Andrew and his bday.

What a bummer of a day! Some people can just be soooo inconsiderate. I hope that your son had fun anyway. I admire you for being willing to have a party with 12 kids and a 12 week old in the first place!
HTH,
