I made her SQUIRM!! Of course she said I could come, but at least I had the sense not to. Don't know if I could've taken the high road with my daughter, you did a great job. .-= Angela at mommy bytes's last blog post...<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MommyBytes/~3/-R0JXxgxpso/beatlemania.html" rel="nofollow">Beatlemania!</a> =-.

My little girl (who is one of the youngest in her class) was told by her classmate that she was only inviting 6 girls and she's not one of them. This would not rub me the wrong way if the girls mom wasn't a Sunday school teacher and also runs a bible study class during soccer practice. She also held my daughter back in Sunday school when all her friends were moving to the next classroom stating b/c my daughter had a summer birthday. Finally, I moved her to the next class anyway. Ironically, she brought a crying kid in the class and said to the teacher, 'Can we move him up to this classroom I know his b-day is in the summertime' SOOOOO I'm trying really hard not to seek revenge , maybe in the form of asking her to pray for parents that have exclusive parties in kindergarten during one of the soccer practice bible study groups.

I knew this mother and she was very organized so I called to verify the authenticity of the invite. She embarrassingly admitted to me that Giggles wasn't a first choice. When I probed Giggles about this she told me the girl's mother made her list out of the people that she wanted to go and then let her pick the top five from the list. When one of the girls cancelled the mom let her pick the next name down. I asked her how she felt about it and she replied "I am just glad that I wasn't number 7" It really put things into perspective for me. .-= Domestic Extraordinaire's last blog post...<a href="http://www.domesticextraordinaire.com/2009/09/tgif-with-some-winners.html" rel="nofollow">TGIF with some winners!!</a> =-.

I heard about it because, hello, of course my daughter would be going to her (second or third) best friend's party. Nope. Because that bitch is a jealous shit who can't stand the fact that my daughter is bestest friends with a girl the bitch wanted to be best friends with. Many revenge scenarios worked through my head. Nearly three years later, I still get joy knowing that girl is a stupid ass with few friends. And I NEVER out this thought to my daughter, who is very, very sweet.

Once I threw a slumber party I invited my whole 5th grade class to and a sweet girl (who I swear if I ever find I will give the biggest hug to) came and didn't attend another party thrown by the most popular girl in school because she committed to me first. She was the only girl to come and the ENTIRE possee of popular's came to my house (as in found my effing address in the phone book) and showed up just to make her feel like crap for attending my party. It still pisses me off. .-= Loralee's last blog post...<a href="http://loraleeslooneytunes.com/2009/09/04/108-days/" rel="nofollow">108 days</a> =-. I was left out a lot as a kid.
