Like I mentioned before, planning a party during quarantine isn't easy. You have to pare down your guest list substantially for starters as social distancing measures are still in place. But luckily that was really the only set back for my 7 year olds birthday on August 29th.
While his older two siblings had to settle for simple celebrations at home with very little decor, he actually had a party with a piñata and a few guests. It wasnt the grandiose party we are used to planning but in a way, it was almost better as it was less stress and more care free. We still had all the standard party fare like cake, balloons and gifts, which is all any kid really needs. It doesn't take much to make kids feel special and happy on their birthdays.
As quarantine is lifted slowly and stores start reopening in phases, there was a lot more to celebrate that August day than just my son's birthday. It was a celebration of the impending normacly of life. We still have a long way to go before everything gets back to normal but celebrating the little things is what makes life fun.
Here are a few photos from my son's ninja themed birthday party. It was a blast!
