im the kind of mother who remembers my child
has a birthday party to go to,
15 mins after it has already started...
and this isnt the first time.
and then there is the present thing.
what is it with 5 yr olds and presents.
along with the time and address
birthday invites for children should include:
and please no presents.
we live in a first world country.
my child has everything they could ever need...
so in the end we convinced marta that her presence
would be more than enough, and of course through
the excitment of it all no one noticed.
but maybe the next time we see this little friend,
we could hand over all the stamps we have steamed
of our mail and encourage her to start a stamp collection.
wholesome hey
We did that once,
but no one listened.
It was rather vexing.
Where are you getting your chicklets from?

I think it is so true, what you say about presents. Christmas is around the corner, and I am trying to convince everyone that I don't really need a thing.
