 Some people are just blah.  We went to a family gathering today. Pies, food, water slid, and the works. There's always someone that has to ruin it. We had to leave early because he thinks he runs everything. If there weren't so many people there I would've said something.  Nonetheless, I am proud of myself for holding my tongue.  I have learned that my kids are watching. Sometimes it's better to leave instead of act.

 My heart hurts for my kiddos today. Despite it being my oldest birthday, I had to tell them that their grandma made others plans.  She does this all the time. She will tell me she will come grab my boys and then she'll make other plans.  My middle child asked me if she loved them less. I wanted to cry. I told him she loves you very much but she got busy. Something came up and she had to take care of it. As I sit there holding back tears, rage filled my heart. He gave me a hug and all of that disappeared.  My kids aren't bad kids just because they have disabilities. They are just kids. I wish people treated them as such.
