I try to go to all of Maddy's things because my parents didn't. Well Dad would if he could. I don't know how many softball games he went to straight from work still covered in dirt so you could only see white around where his glasses were.

Oh, that sucks. My f-i-l thinks my kids are fine so he doesn't bother. I think he just is ignorant to reality. He asked us to move out to where he lived, heck, his wifes' family all moved out there, come on! I told him 'Well, my mother and my Hubbys' mother both live within minutes of us. We are not leaving.' How he could dismiss our families so easily. {I am close, as close as I can be, to my mother. When my m-i-l was alive, the Hubster needed to be close to her as she didn't drive and often needed care. Besides, after their divorce, she is the one who raised them and he went off and was a bachelor.....Do men still do this? Just leave the family and maybe get them on a Sat afternoon????}

Oh, sweet memory of your dad, katiesue.

LOL Alex, now, don't get me wrong, my kids are not in every class/team out there. Thank God! {or Buddha, whatever} When they've asked to do something, I let them try. They really are not interested in doing a lot, we have a lot going on here with us.

Too funny about you and your sisters' kids. I don't forget how many kids people have {normally} but I do forget ages, etc. And, while I was very involved with my sister who has kids the age of my two older ones, I basically 'quit' family when my kids got a bit older.

Family can suck. That is all I am going to say.

Only if it is their kid.

Nickolas recieved his yellow belt last night and I was there to see it!! I also made it to see his test Thursday night. I also know how many teeth he lost since Easter. These are moments that can't be rewound. These are moments Nick will always remember, as moments that I was there for him.

Some men can make sure they see another kid's every single sports game and practice, often taking him to those games and practices, but has yet to see how well his own son is doing in TaiKwonDo.






rant over
