I didn't know where to put this, as it doesn't really belong here or anywhere.

I am so fucking fed up. My wonderful little boy is 2 tomorrow and I'm trying to decorate the flat for him with balloons and banners. There is literally just me and him. There is no one else. I've just texted my sister in law and said seeing as she hasn't even responded to my text I assume she won't be coming to my sons birthday tea tomorrow. She was the only one invited (with my nephews) so there will be just the 2 of us as usual. She cares so little she couldn't even be arsed to text to say she wasn't coming.

My poor son deserves so much, and instead there's just me and him and stupid multi pack of party cups that will do for 10.

I'm so sick of doing everything and having no one. I'm so tired of being alone and letting ds down. I don't know how much more I can take, my son deserves a better life than the one I'm giving him. I just can't do this anymore, and I know I have to, but I can't. It's shit.

And you are such a lovely mum, these are for youFlowers

What a cutie! He's a lucky little boy to have such a doting mummy Smile. One day he'll look back at the life you gave him and thank you for making days like this, and all the ones inbetween. He has all he needs in you so don't ever be down on yourself (said by a single mum of three).
Happy Birthday, little man! Cake
Have a great day you two xxx

Fairylea · 23/03/2014 09:16

You're a lovely mummy.

Happy birthday little one!

Happy Birthday to your gorgeous boy! X

You're doing great, OP. You're AWESOME! Have a fab day at the farm.

mammadiggingdeep · 23/03/2014 09:26

You're a great mum. He will have a super day.

I get how you feel- just please hang in there. Once he's a little older he will have friends from nursery (will he be going when he's 3?). You'll also make a little network of friends and I promise it'll all get easier.

Sending your son a big birthday wishes Cake and sending you Flowers

All he needs to have a fantastic day today is YOU! I think winning's idea of going to the park with lots of balloons and biscuits is a brilliant one.

Have a great time at the farm..

MairzyDoats · 23/03/2014 10:31

He's adorable, and he's very lucky to have a mummy who loves him so much. Hope he has a fab birthday and that something small happens today to open up some new friendships for you.

Parsley1234 · 23/03/2014 10:31

Ahhhhh that made me cry too ! He is gorgeous you will find a way through keep positive outré all he needs look how happy he is happy birthday x

OnlyLovers · 23/03/2014 10:32

That's a beautiful photo of a beautiful happy kid!

When I was two I'd have wanted nothing more in the world than my mum, some balloons and chocolate croissants and a trip to a farm. You're giving him a perfect day and you sound like a wonderful parent.

I don't have kids myself, but I believe all the others on this thread who are saying that you and he will both make friends as he gets older.

Happy birthday to MiniOP! Cake

BlackeyedPetitsPois · 23/03/2014 10:45
