My niece(5) had a birthday party in Saturday and I've still yet to receive any form of thank you for her gift.
There was no time at the party because it was a proper disco based party so lots of people, lots of gifts. There was a table that all the gifts were placed on and I made sure I taped the cards to the present so that dsis knew it was from us. Still nothing.
We are a bit uneasy at the moment with each other after Christmas tbh. Dsis bought nothing for my two dc for Christmas. She then avoided me at all costs. I was hurt but understood. She had just had a new baby so didn't have much money. Fine. What annoyed me more is that she never said thank you for the presets I bought dniece or dnephew. I had given them to my mum to give to dsis because she lives 30 mins car drive away and we have no way of getting to her.
It's starting to really irritate me and makes me wish I don't bloody bother. But I can't. The children are innocent and don't deserve to be caught up in all this
