The other day my daughter looked up at me with her sweet little brown eyes and said, "Mommy, I want to have an Ariel party."
Ariel, from The Little Mermaid, is now her absolute favorite character of all time. I'd say, she is a little obsessed. She even occasionally introduces herself to others as Ariel. I just chuckle and see how far she takes it. At two and half, it's still okay to pretend! So I hesitated for a moment thinking, well, it's not a birthday party, maybe we can just do a "happy day" day party and Ariel is the imaginary guest of honor.
So I leaped into the twinge of the excitement longing in her eyes. I pulled out some cake mix, grabbed a few left over balloons and blew them up, gave everybody a party hat and we had a party! The kids made pretend decorations for Ariel and then got to decorate the cake with crazy left over stuff like cool whip, raisins, peanuts, sprinkles...anything I figured that would be fun. They loved it.
It turned an ordinary day into a "Happy Day."
