For the last 6 months or so I’ve been making purchases here and there to host the world’s coolest circus party. We were going to have a huge backyard bash complete with a popcorn machine, games, cotton candy, you name it. The planning started getting away from me when I lost my job and I needed to start putting everything together to finish up. Then Guy through a wrench in my plans, but it ended up being a good wrench.
He convinced me that we should hang on to what we’ve got, host a smaller party this year, and have the circus for birthday number two. Why? Because Brady will not enjoy a single thing that we are paying for except for the kids that are invited, and they’re free. Sure enough, Brady could have cared less about the decorations, the present we bought him or the homemade cupcakes that took me 14 hours to make. (Exaggeration.) What he did love was having company over (his favorite thing at the moment) and the balloons.
