My mom and step dad are driving 2 hours to go be with my step sister on the day of her ultrasound(to find out the sex) Now, normally i wouldn't mind. Her mom passed away about 9 years ago, so i know she wants some women support. They are going the night before and staying the night. Normally it would'nt be a big deal, but I only live about 30 miles, and i can't get them to come up here, cause there golf games are important to them. DH says im being EXTREAMLY petty, and i know he's right. I can't help but to feel jeleous. This is the first time in my life i've had to share my mom.
The nanny that i'm pretty good freinds with is going through a rough time. I talked to her this weekend, and told her I would call her today about a play date. When I called, she said she was at the beach, and that they were playing. I called another friend after that to set up a play date, but they weren't home, so i left a message. The other mom called me back around 1, and said that Dylan and the nanny had been there all morning, and that he was coming back on Wed to play. I asked the nanny if they wanted to come overe here and come swimming tomorrow, but she said she was too tired to bring him anywhere, and she didn't want to deal with swimming. We agreed that a playdate with all 3 kids would be fun. The mom called me back and asked us to bring our bathing suits, cause the kids were in the pool all morning, and wanted to go back int he pool on Wed. I know i'm being petty on this too, but I feel left out....
“Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven.”
The mother thing is understandable. Dont feel bad for feeling normal.
I am sorry that i have no words of advise to offer. I can only say i now how you feel as I go through the same thing daily with my mom and my brother... He's the golden boy and i'm chopped liver.
