If your kids seem to enjoy breakfast more than any other meal of the day, why not start their birthday off with a bang? No, you don't have to send out the Evite for 8:00 a.m., or go to the pony rides at the crack of dawn. There are much easier ways to celebrate a kid birthday party in the early morning hours.

In fact, some fantastic advantages to throwing a breakfast birthday party include, but are not limited to: Easy clean-up, small crowds, lots of inexpressive options, and everyone will want to nap in the afternoon.

Here are five ways you can throw your toddler a fantastic breakfast birthday party:

We all are very clued in that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, yes? Yes. I love me some breakfast as well, but I can't help but notice it disappoints my actual body several times a week. Generally within an hour or two after eating, I'm starving. Like stomach rumbling, crazy cravings starving. In fact, I'm starving right now.

However, on the weekends when I have the opportunity to make an omelet or have a heartier breakfast, I'm good until mid-afternoon. The obvious answer here is that I need to eat more in the morning. The challenge, however, is how to do this when you're busy and ready to run out the door for school drop-off, then back to work, then the million other things you do during a day.

I know I'm not alone, because Google tells me so. After scouring the Internets, I found three ways to stop my crazy morning hunger pains and stay satiated. Hooray! Try this at home.

In yet another installment of, "Why I will never, ever, ever get a divorce," a story about a 10-year custody battle of a little boy highlights how anger with your adult partner can seriously harm your child. You'll be forgiven for not immediately seeing the damage done to 16-year-old Alex Abbott, who is at the center of a custody case that just ended simply because he aged out of the process.

To quickly recap: Alex's parents, Jacquelyn Vaye Abbott (American born) and Timothy Abbott (British born), married in England and gave birth to baby Alex in Hawaii. The couple then relocated to Chile and later separated. Jacquelyn had custody, and Timothy had visitation rights. Jacquelyn claimed she could not find work in Chile due to her status as an American citizen, and took Alex (then 10 years old) back to live with her in Texas. Timothy never granted a divorce and has been fighting to have Alex brought back to Chile ever since.
