Princess Tea Party

Last Saturday Antalya was invited to her very first birthday party. A girl in her class was turning 4 and was celebrating with a princess tea party. I was so proud of Antalya. She had never experienced anything quite like it, and most the time didn't understand what was going on, but she tried so hard to go right along with the other girls.

The hardest part was that all the food, juice, and cakes were set out on the table from the moment we arrived, but we started with games, and other "non-eating" activities. Antalya just couldn't understand why no one was eating all the yummy stuff if it was right there. And she got so frustrated when I kept insisting she needed to wait.

But, overall it was a good experience. It was fun for me to see her interact with some of her classmates. I snapped this not very good picture of the group with my camera.
