Parenting can often feel like a never-ending cycle of decision-making, and I might just be a masochist for complicating things. My kids frequently suggest parties at venues like bowling alleys, trampoline parks, museums, or aquariums. Yet, somehow, I manage to persuade them that hosting a party at home would be far more enjoyable and unique. Just when I begin to believe my own rhetoric, they eagerly agree, and I am left questioning my sanity. Why can’t I remember the lessons learned from past experiences? It’s no secret that those established party spots are popular for a reason: they’re effortless. I’ve been through the chaos of hosting at home before—the mess, the wild energy of children—I should know better.
So, here we were: a spa-themed party at home. Fourteen of Mia’s closest pals arrived in their PJs, bubbling with excitement. We painted 140 nails, smothered 140 cheeks in avocado masks, and styled 14 heads of hair into braids and updos (yes, I’m taking creative liberties with vocabulary). It was a magical experience, capturing all the delightful aspects of having daughters. And, honestly, I do enjoy all the pampering fun.
However, next year? I’m ready to embrace the convenience of an outside venue where I won’t have to shoulder all the planning, cooking, and cleaning. More likely than not, you’ll end up reading a similar story next time around.
