It was at a Salon and Spa.....what ever happened to McDonald's or Chuck E. Cheese......and it came complete with pink balloons, raspberry lemonade and strawberry frosted "ladybug" cupcakes. And did I mention all the little girls got pedicures. Keep in mind, E is 17 months old.
Do I hear you wondering what the Moms got? I myself received a chocolate cake crumb facial. Or more like my blue stripe seer-sucker sun dress received that. My face was coated with more of a combination of sticky lemonade kisses and pastel marshmallow goo. All super moisturizing, of course.
But a riotous time was had by all. E rocked out to the sound track from, appropriately enough for a Salon and Spa, Hairspray. She clapped for all the gifts and unlike some others didn't once try to take back the presents we had bought the birthday girl. She got her tiny toe nails painted sparkly fuchsia pink and she also ingested just enough sugar to hype her up for the ride home. And then promptly fell to pieces when we arrived and the subject of nap time was broached.
I now see why all kids love the idea of attending a big old birthday party and most parents, after receiving the invite, internally swear. But I guess, as long as it's not an every day event......
