And when I finally mustered the nerve to call my son last night at around 9PM his time, I saw a text on my phone that said how disappointed he was in me. Because I didn't call him, when all he could be bothered to do was to text me? Merry Christmas to me. I seriously hate drama.
that is messed up!!! I've told all of my kids that I've earned the right after all of these yrs that they should be the ones driving to my house (rather there are gifts or not) or to call. Each and everyone of my kids called me yesterday or at leased text (one out of 5 sent text) me to say Merry Christmas. You should tell him then you are equal because you are disapointed because he didn't contact you. He could have taken the time that he spent texting and called and done the right thing. I love Christmas and doing the gift exchange and all. This year has been really hard on me right up to last Sunday when I all of a sudden ended up in the hospital for 3 days but I have to admit I did what I wanted. that was to enjoy Christmas no matter what crap was going on in my life. I pray 2012 will be better than 2011 for all of us.
