Up coming events.
Today my mind has been on the days to come. My oldest son Justice has a birthday in March. A few years ago I stopped inviting aunts and uncles, cousins etc.. over for cake and ice cream. Something I regret and plan to change this year. I miss having the celebration that came along with a group.
When I married my husband this was one of those traditions I felt I forced on his family, and after several years gave up trying to bring them together for this reason. I now feel that it was a mistake. You see it's not just cake and ice cream. But a connection to the support system that was naturally given to us. (FAMILY)
It's not OK to just be there when someone needs you, we need more our children need more. Never again will feel guilty and change my tradition to accommodate someone else. So family and friends please note that my door will always be open weather you choose to use it or not!
