We took our kids and 7 of Gracies closest friends to the Rec Center for her birthday party. With her upcoming baptism, we thought we'd stick with a water theme. I was impresed with the price for the party room including 15 guests. Very reasonable.
That was where the sanity ended. I had invited a couple of parents to join us but in the end it was John and I + 11 kids. I hope I've learned my lesson. 7/8 yr. olds are not old enough to swim without parents. We divided the kids into groups with Barak and Eva helping keep an eye but I was completely stressed out, hectic, nerve-wracked. I would pay double to have the party here at home- contained.
Luckily, the time flew by. We rounded and corralled the kids and delivered them safely home. Never, not ever, again. WOW. I was exhausted. I guess you really can't win 'em all. At least the kids had fun.
