Why do I let my daughter talk me into things I really don't want to do?? I love Emma so much.....but I REALLY do NOT want to have yet another Princess party. We did the Cinderella party last year, and I very much enjoyed it. I loved the "fluff" of the whole event. Some of my friends still think I am insane for that party. But, I loved it....she loved it....it was fun. However, it was a lot of work and I really am not up to it again this year. But none the less....she has sufficiently beaten me into submission and we are having an Ariel party . I told her I wasn't going to go all out this year like I did last year. We are going to do an "Under the Sea" theme this year, instead of focusing on the Princess side of it. I think we are going to decorate the house to look like we are underwater. I am still thinking on the details of how that will happen, so any suggestions are welcomed. Anyhoo, as Emma so wisely pointed out, this will probably be the last year she will want a Princess party, so I guess I should have it while I can. I know someday I will look back and wish she still wanted to have these kinds of parties. But right now I am feeling a little overwhelmed by it all. The timing of the whole thing isn't ideal either. The only day "Ariel" was available was the 9th of Feb. We are going to Vermont the week before and won't get back until the 7th. Those of you who are my friends and know the meltdown mode I go into before any event at my house.....are gasping right now. Yes...I know....2 days to get ready for the party.....this could get ugly!!!

UMMMMMM......REALLY UGLY. But at least you are aware of your "meltdown mode" and maybe you can plan in advance accordingly this year and it won't be as bad as you are thinking! Your positive friend, just trying to stay positive!!!!!!
Do I even need to respond?
I'll be there with bells on to help if you'd like!
