Those of you who "know" me might remember that almost every year at some point over his birthday I start a maudlin thread about his birth mother and what she's missing out and what he missing out and how I can't fix it etc.
Well not this year!
Probably I'm just a bit too busy - had three birthday celebrations, his actual birthday on Thursday (very low key) then 11 6/7 yrs old at a bowling party on Saturday then today various members of my family up for lunch. Also I started back at work part-time a few weeks ago and even two days a week is feeling a bit of a stretch.
So all in all I perhaps just haven't had time to think too much about it in my normal annual mope-fest.
But to be honest I feel a bit about it! I feel a bit like I should be thinking about his BM and him and their lost relationship. It feels a bit odd that this year has felt totally about him for the first time and not about her.
I kinda miss the angst! (But I bet you lot don't!)
