Charlise has really been acting up a lot lately and I'm sure, for the most part, it's my fault. I haven't been patient with her, I haven't planned any play dates for her, and I really haven't done much at all with or for her. This past month has been . . . a challenge to say the least, and she really has suffered from the drama that has encircled our family recently. I realized that her acting up is really just her loud way of trying to get some of my attention so I decided to invite a few of her little friends over and have a fun little Christmas party.
Yesterday we went to Michaels and found a fun little candy cane craft {something I remember my Grandma Vee doing with me as a little girl} and some little presents for her friends to take home. She has been SO excited . . . and I actually have been too. It's been fun to see her so excited to see me making a big deal out of her. Sad . . . I know.

It was such a fun little party. Everyone played nice together for the most part and the 2 hours went by surprisingly fast! We will for sure be doing more of these holiday parties. The older girls get parties at school . . . I'm surprised it's taken me this long to plan one for Charly! Lame mom here! I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things. Feels good.
