Episode 5: Birthday Parties
Listen in as we navigate the tumultuous decision-making process surrounding my daughter Harper's upcoming fourth birthday party. Despite my initial reluctance to host a party this year, my sister and godmom have convinced me otherwise. The debate revolves around the idea of celebrating every year versus marking only significant milestones, balancing the party options between Harper's summer birthday and my son Jackson's winter birthday, and the impact of my husband's basketball career on our family celebrations.
In this lively discussion, we also explore Harper's character-themed party plans featuring the Princess Isabella's sisters. We grapple with the pressure exerted by social media to throw extravagant parties and ponder over alternative celebration options like donations to Harper's education fund in lieu of gifts. As we exchange thoughts on gifting experiences over parties, we also consider what Harper and Jackson's future milestone birthdays might look like. Join us as we traverse this intricate maze of parenting decisions and familial debate, aiming to strike a balance that honors each child's unique needs and desires.
