My daughter will be two years old in a few months. For her first birthday, we really didn’t do anything. My grandmother and I made her a cake and let her dig into it, and she got a small toy. I was too broke to buy anything else or decorate, and I really didn’t have any friends or family to invite. I still feel guilty for not throwing her a proper party.I am already stressed about her upcoming birthday. I am working now, so I can afford a bit more than last year, and I have a few people I could invite with their children, but I don’t want to host and entertain. I’m very introverted. I feel like I’m being selfish though, and putting my being uncomfortable in the way of my daughter having an actual birthday party.Ideally, I could take her to have a fun mommy-and-me day. We could start off by going to the aquarium or the zoo. And then go to build-a-bear. And end the day by blowing out a candle in a cupcake and letting her eat it. But part of me still wants her to have that birthday party experience I had growing up. Ughhh I don’t know what to do. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2QGnMl5
