So we are fast approaching Bailey's first birthday. I am not so sure that I want to have a birthday party for her-not because I am lazy or selfish, I am just wondering if it is worth putting all the time, effort and money into it when she has no idea what is going on??? Is this selfish and cruel of me?? I just seem to feel that throwing a big birthday party and inviting tons of people over is just a way of saying "Hey bring my kis some gifts and oh yeah by the way help yourself to some cake" Am I wrong on thinking that? I just think that it seems more worth it the older she gets and can look forward to planning her own party and having fun with her friends as opposed to a bunch of strangers she doesn't know. What did you all do when your babies turned one??? It is not like I am just going to let the day go by unnoticed, just maybe have a celebration with her daddy and I-the way it was the day she was born!
