I was kind of freaked out...luckily, she said she didn't want to go. whew. Bullet dodged, for now.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad he had a great time. :) Some day, when they're older, you can arrange them to be on sleepovers on the same night, and then you have free babysitting, so a date night!

What a sweet post! I knew you'd be able to...Awwwww! What a sweet post! I knew you'd be able to survive Liam's first sleepover :) <BR/><BR/>I remember being in elementary school and having slumber parties and going to slumber parties. I grew up with 12 cousins so sleeping over was no big deal for me. I was surprised when I was invited to a sleepover at a friend's house and one of the girls had so much fun...up until bed time. As soon as it was time to go to bed, she'd get these terrible stomachaches and start crying. Sometimes she'd even throw up from her stomachaches.<BR/><BR/>She was an only child and I found out later on that the separation anxiety was hard on her, but even worse on her mom. Her mom would always come pick her up and bring her home...never fail. Some of the kids and mothers used to wonder why that girl's mom even let her daughter sleepover in the first place if we knew very well that she'd be calling home to be picked up anyway. <BR/><BR/>For some kids and some parents, being away from home and from each other isn't always as easy as it is for others. It's very interesting though. Even though I had no qualms with sleeping over and my parents didn't mind either, I always sympathized with my friend. It's not a crime to not want to sleep at someone else's house.<BR/><BR/>I'm happy to hear that Liam's first night away from home was fun and that he adapted well. Sleepovers are so much fun! :)<BR/><BR/>Sheeeesh! Are the comments we leave on each other's blogs getting longer and longer?
