In just a few short weeks, my younger daughter will be
turning four. In honor of her birthday,
we are having a Hello Kitty/Ladybug/Ninjago/Lilo & Stitch Party. Not joking.
That’s the theme she picked.
It began with a Hello Kitty Ladybug party, and that will
remain the main theme. In a sweet
concern for her boy cousin, she added Ninjago.
This allows the boys at the party to have their own theme. I tried to narrow it and leave
off the Ninjago part, but to no avail.
She won’t let it go.
Now, Lilo & Stitch…that’s totally random. She’s not a huge fan of the movie, we haven’t
read that book recently, and we certainly haven’t been on an island
vacation. She saw a Lilo & Stitch
balloon and decided that we needed to include this element as well.
I’m having an internal struggle between embracing all of the
themes she’s picked and making her party what I consider cute and
well-planned. The main point to remember
in this inner battle is that it is not my party.
So Hello Kitty/Ladybug/Ninjago/Lilo & Stitch it is. Happy Almost Birthday, Little One!
