Help[Games] Re: Make a family, Part 5
in reply to a message by Hannah
Isaiah & Estella just celebrated their 10th birthday. The party started off great but eventually went down hill. Here's the story...
After Izzy & Stella's friends arrived it was a mad house! I was hurrying up with the cake and Colin was busy wrapping the gifts that were put off last minute. My sister Tracey and Colin's sister Moira were supervising the children (A.K.A being manhandled by them) when Gabriel said he needed to go to the bathroom. Moira took him to the bathroom while she waited for him in the living room. As she was waiting, precious, little 5-year-old Gabe decided to shove as much toilet paper down the toilet as he possibly could until we were left with just the one roll. Now, why would he do that you asked? For the simple shock value I guess. Poor, Colin spent the better half of the party, playing plumber rather than party host while Gabe spent the better half of the party in his room.
After an hour and a half of the kids playing outside we finally got to the cutting of the cake. While at the table Juliet got her hair pulled by her cousin, Aliyah, and Everett agitated the situation by kicking Aliyah. So now we have two little girls with a huge lung capacity screaming till the could scream no more. The cutting of the cake was put off because I was pondering if these already out of control kids should be given any sugar. I hired my brother Mike, for reinforcements and he finally settled the kids down. We finally had cake with nothing less than a minor food fight.
Time for presents! After Isaiah and Stella received their gifts from their family Colin’s 70-year-old grandmother, Eileen, thought they turned five rather than ten and gave them kindergarten word games. I made Isaiah and Estella graciously accept them to spare any hurt feelings.
Finally they all go home! But of course not with out a grand exit. While Colin and I were helping Eileen down the front steps and waving good byes and thanks yous to all who joined us, Everett ran out the front door, bump into Eileen and flew off the porch. You guess it! He broke his arm! What else could possibly go wrong? Foolish me, I let go of Eileen and ran to comfort my baby and she too slipped, fell and sprained her knee. We rushed them both to the hospital. After all of that I had a few minutes out in the emergency hall way to catch my breath and with that I promised Izzy and Stella as the begged me, that they will never have to throw a party again. Instead we’ll go to the movies while their little siblings stay home.
Love,
Colin, Lisa, Isaiah, Estella, Juliet, Everett & Gabriel.
