One Reason I’m Glad I Have Three Boys

So I’m in Panera right now, enjoying some daddy time (thanks SuburbanMommy!), and I can’t help overhearing am hanging on every word, listening to the table next to me. A mom and her 15 year old daughter are meeting with a party planner to discuss what I’m guessing is her sweet sixteen party.

Just some of the juicy tidbits…75 of her closest friends. Hotel. DJ. Professional photographer and video. Red carpet and strobe lights (no joke). Limousine. Custom invitations.

Truly THE party of the season. I’m going to ask if I can come.

When the planner asked what was the most important feature, what she wanted her friends to remember about the party, the girl said “I want it to be better than my friend Kayla’s who is having her party the month before”. Apparently, Kayla has already “stolen” many of her party theme ideas, and the coolest venue.

I’ve heard that boys are tougher when they are young, but once they become teenagers, girls are a nightmare. I believe it. Not to mention more expensive.

  1. My friend has two girls right now and one on the way when he discovered the one on way the first thought that came to his mind was, there’s one more year I’ll have to work to pay for this wedding.

  2. Holy cow – That’s crazy. Yes, there ARE really good things about having 3 sons. So, do tell? Did you get an invite???? If it helps, I can supply some pictures of previous events for which you provided much entertainment in the way of dancing …. hee hee. (Amy and Craig’s wedding, The Bottom Line, your OWN wedding …)
