The Party Bug


a

Jack and Sadie love a good party. The crowds and noise do not dissuade them at all. We've heard stories of kids who just want to hide at their own birthday parties. Not our kids. On Saturday we went to a birthday party that featured something called "Bubble Magic", which appeared to be a very bored college student placing kiddie pools of bubble solution and bubble wands around the party's backyard while he texted his friends. Jack and Sadie were on those bubbles faster than you could snap your fingers. Before we knew it they had stripped off their respective Spiderman cape and ballet dress (no, it was not a costume party) and were half naked splashing around in the bubble solution. While all the other kids at the party stood on the sidelines debating whether to engage in this activity at all our kids whopped it up. Would I be kidding myself to hope that this might mean that they could get the party bug out of their system before adolescence?
