This week Isaac came up with the idea that he was going to have a dance party. He started inviting guests Unofficially before I could even say yes or no. To be honest, I didn't really want too with Addy's b-day party next weekend. However, I am super happy that I allowed him to do this. He planned every detail: He made a list of games he wanted to play, he planned the menu, he called to invite his guests, he cleaned the house twice, he set the table, made name cards, etc. He did it ALL!!! He asked for my help of course with details, and the food preparation but he knew what he wanted to do and what needed to be done and just did it without being asked.
Can you say PROUD! Maybe a future party planner he might be...I would LOVE that!
This event was hard for me. It was hard to not have control of the situation, the menu, drinks etc. It was hard to serve guests orange and apple slices but I did it, and for that I am proud of me too. :)
The guests that came were AMAZING. They participated in every game and danced their hearts out. Isaac was very particular with his guest list, only wanting to invite 5 people but only 4 could make it. We missed you Papa!!! Maybe the next party he plans will be bigger...I already heard talk of the next and the first only ended a short while ago.
It was amazing to see my tender hearted little boy being shown so much support by his family and executing such an amazing event at only 5! Most of the games he invented all on his own...they were great and creative!
I love you Isaac, and I can't wait to help you plan the next party.
(start training now future guests...the next one will be outside....lots more space to run)
