HELP!!! Planing a birthday party and I have to pay per child….?

So I am in the middle of making the photo personalized birthday invitations and I don’t know exactly how to word this so parents wont be offended. Its a small room and we are only going to invite 8 kids because that’s the party package. So how do I word it on the invite that its for 1 child and 1 child only and that that child must be accompanied by 1 adult. I have been to party’s before where parents will bring their other kids(who are not invited and drop them off and leave)so they expect the parents throwing the party to include them(I can only understand it if its family) I also I don’t want parents just dropping off there 2 and 3 year old’s for 2 hrs. I have 5.5 month old twins my hubby will be there and my parents but still their parent needs to bee there. Please I don’t want to be rude.

I thought about: Invitation admits only 1 child & he/she must be accompanied by 1 adult
The package I have includes 8 kids for 89.99 its an extra $6.50per additional kid and that’s if I pay before the party. If its after its $8.50. I want to have a great party for my son I am gonna have a balloon twister and other things but If I go over our current budget something will have to go.

What is a good book to read?

I need something adult oriented and in the fantasy realm or Gothic realm. (Already read Anne Rice’s books). I also like books that make me think…

What do you think of edgy YA novels?

I mean, YA fiction that involves a lot of the harsh things offered in reality. Things like: sex, violence, cursing…and a lot more. Material in YA novels that are on the more adult side of the genre.

Thanks in advance!!

Help Identifying Large Bee?

My son came across a large bee in our house. It was sitting on the floor. By large, I mean it was the length and width of an adult thumb. The body was in two segments as I recall were both roundish. It had a fairly large “wing span” but given that the insect was over 2 inches long that’s not surprising. It was black w/ yellow stripes and black legs/antennae. Hubby threw him out or I’d have pictures.

It honestly looked just like a bee. I’ve been on sites and searched. Most people who have seen this are told it’s a Cicada Killer Wasp (nope) or a Tarantula Hawk Wasp (nope). And I have enough Carpenter Bees around the house to know that’s not it either. It’s not a wasp or hornet as it’s tail end is simply not pointed at all.
Not a wood bee. And I wish I had a picture of it because it was exactly the size of my husband’s thumb from base to tip. So yes, 2 inches would NOT be an exaggeration. I thought it might be a Queen but Queens don’t get that big do they?
I’ve looked through a bunch of honey bee pictures and my bug was not hairy. I’m hoping folks can keep giving me suggestions. I found a few other folks posting similar questions on entomology boards so I know I’m not alone in this confusion. Thx.

What can i do about my husbands baby mother?

I need advice. I married my guy and knowing that he has a baby I still married him because I love him. But now Im having trouble with myself with the idea that his ex still wants him and careless about him being married to me. She still calls him (not baby related) tells him she loves him. She has paid his cell phone bill (he doesnt know I know, and he has 2 cell phones) so she can call him. I have asked him nicely to be honest and just tell her to be an adult and to move on, but that he will always be there for the baby. I have no problem with the baby. I only have a problem with her always trying to find ways to get to him. I ask him many times if he feels for her, that I would understand and leave, but he tells me he loves me and that she careless for him, but I have facts that she still wants to get with him. Im honestly afraid to loose him because I am not a drama queen and dont tell her anything how friends tell me to do so. I just hold back many things. but I feel like its hurting me and I wish I could just tell her to stop but I dont want trouble. Please advice.
