Jack and I were at a really fun birthday party today for a friend of his from school. We were at a great spot in Tarrytown called Reed Park. Safe and harmless enough of a place, right? Well sure- unless there is a group of 5 and 6 year old boys gathered together. A lot of the morning was spent washing off scrapes, narrowly saving little guys from bone-threatening slides down hill faces and other general threats and perils. In between those adventures we talked stories of all the recent injuries that have befallen our respective party goers.
If you are the parent of girl(s), the only people who understand this explosive combination less than you are those with no children at all. We who are blessed with snips and snails and puppy dog tails for offspring should appreciate my new idea for a birthday party venue.
It would look something like this...
We would call it "THE ASYLUM" and little guests would be fitted with straight jacket party favors as they came in the door. Maybe then the parents could kick back and relax on a Saturday morning. What do you think? Million dollar idea, right?
