what should I do?

I'm worried. Surprised? Then you're new here.



I'm worried that 2 of the 4 girls Stinkerbell has invited to her Rock Star/Spa/Sleepover/Makeover party will not be able to attend. Now, while this is not in itself a tragedy, it will make for the quantity that kills parties - THREE.



Three girls = one girl left out = hurt feelings.



new math, don't you love it?



Here's where I don't know what to do... Should I call the parents of those little girls and beg for their permission to let their beloved princess to sleep over at our house. A house which they've never visited. They don't know us well.



To tell the truth, I don't think I'd let Stinkerbell sleep over at their house. I'm pretty particular about where I let my baby sleep. Sure, she has stayed overnight with friends before - but only with the 2 girls I KNOW will be attending.



I can't blame them. Yet, I think they should trust us and let their little twerp come to her party.

She's special, dangit!



So, do I call them and put them on the spot and/or offer alternatives like them staying during the party and taking their child home for the night?

If I get the "I'm sorry" response, do I invite another girl in their place(s)?

Or do I take my chances with there just being THREE at the party?

I'm waiting...... You're so much wiser than I.
