It was her birthday on Thursday, and I saw her then and took cake, flowers, balloon, pressies. Today we took her out for the afternoon and a gorgeous Afternoon Tea.
When I nipped to the loo, she gave DH a hard time saying she was going to be on her own tomorrow, and that we should spend it together, or should have gone out tomorrow instead.
I always make a huge effort with her, but even though she lives a mile away, she isn't involved in our lives, never invites us around and has never, ever had DS through choice...to be fair, she will if I ask, but I don't like to, so it's pretty rare anyway. It's not a great relationship, although I try.
I feel really terrible now though at the thought of her being unhappy...
