If that wasn't their intention you're right add a balloon, and say "I'm crazy birthday boy, so give me some CANDY!"(Adam Sandler SNL) You probably already knew that but just so you don't think I'm wacko.;)Jorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344793220084310923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37422219.post-75786666160487419412008-06-25T18:08:00.000-07:002008-06-25T18:08:00.000-07:00no doesn't look like a bday invite to me. i would ...no doesn't look like a bday invite to me. i would invite the boy out for an ice cream cone and call it a birthday treat. maybe next time they'll add a balloon or something.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14450116981339962583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37422219.post-11119155419667065202008-06-25T15:20:00.000-07:002008-06-25T15:20:00.000-07:00Well, generally birthday parties invitations say "...Well, generally birthday parties invitations say "BIRTHDAY" on them...lol As far as a gift is concerned, I think a late gift would be fine. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37422219.post-41499330321329896962008-06-25T14:35:00.000-07:002008-06-25T14:35:00.000-07:00no, I wouldn't have known either.

Even when I asked my dd she didn't think it was a birthday party. I asked the mom when I rsvp'd. And it was a birthday party. People really need to word their invitations better! If your ds feels really bad about not having a gift, I think it would be fine to take one over.<BR/><BR/>A few year back my oldest was invited to a party (the birthday kind) and the invitation specifically said "no gifts please" so I didn't send one with him. Well, every other mother sent a gift and my poor kid was the only one without a gift to give. I talked to the mother and now I can't even remember what I did. I think I might have sent a present the next week.frugalmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08473115787361465055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37422219.post-83925876834392241622008-06-25T13:16:00.000-07:002008-06-25T13:16:00.000-07:00Nope, I wouldn't have thought it was a birthday at...Nope, I wouldn't have thought it was a birthday at all.

We're planning to do a water party for a birthday soon. I'll be sure to state somewhere that it is for a birthday even though I'd rather go giftless.<BR/><BR/>I would call the mom and ask if she would be okay with you bringing over a gift. We have too much stuff as it is and birthday party guests usually bring junk that is thrown (or given) out after a month or two. The last time we did a birthday party one kid's gift was in the other car. It didn't come for a couple weeks and my daughter was still happy for the gift.christinekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02050811779245939423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37422219.post-82418680571986176212008-06-25T12:05:00.000-07:002008-06-25T12:05:00.000-07:00I wouldn't have realized it was a birthday party e...I wouldn't have realized it was a birthday party either. <BR/><BR/>How does Jordan feel about not taking a gift? If he feels bad then I would probably send a late one, if he doesn't care then I would let it go.<BR/><BR/>Any memorable games from the party? M's birthday is in August and I need ideas :).QueenMeadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10538822581749845219noreply@blogger.com
