I can relate. We don't do kid parties yet and our families are pretty small. DD1s birthday is tomorrow. The only people attending are her two sets of grandparents. DHs sister and BIL live out of state, my aunt and uncle would normally come but uncle is recovering from major surgery, and my bro and his wife and kids have other commitments (kids are in both soccer and dance have have to be in two places at once). So yeah, fun times for a 6yo. But I'm also relieved that we don't do kids parties because then I don't have to deal with the disappointment of none of her friends rsvping.
It stinks. It really does. I'm just hoping to keep my disappointment from becoming hers.
