Party!

My darling niece, Alyssa, was born on the first day of school last year (highly inconvenient, I might add, for her teacher-auntie!). This year her birthday falls on a Wednesday, which happens to be the 3rd day of school. Not nearly as dramatic nor inconvenient. Her party, though, will be next Saturday at my house. I made the invitations, which my sister wanted to keep simple. I wanted to make cupcake-shaped cards that slipped out of cupcake wrapper-shaped envelopes but she did not want to deal with complications. And I'm glad I didn't go there because tonight she told me she needs 8 more invitations. By tonight. I love her.




ps - I still have a killer cold! Ugh!
