hello everyone! I have long newsletter about the many things I have been thinking about. they seem a bit disjoined but here they are. Please feel free write back. Recently, at a friend’s kid’s birthday party I saw a scene which stayed with me. The birthday party was at a cake studio. There were two tables around which the children were seated. One big table where most of the kids sat facing each other, making a lot of noise, having fun and mixing their cake batter. There was another table, about 5-6 kids sat there facing the wall and mixing their cake batter. Clearly fun was being had at the big table. So a kid who decided to switch tables after the first set of activities and all the kids shooed him away. Because apparently one could only sit in the place that they took up initially. The kid, a little dismayed, went back to the table facing the wall and baked his cake. I knew that hurt that little boy felt because a child I have tried often to be part of groups that seemed to be having more fun, the cool gangs and have been shooed away like I don’t belong.
I have cried gallons reading this on a Monday morning right before work so wow Thank you..I guess?
