just had a flying visit from my Dsis and her DCs (pre-schoolers)
they are gorgeous - i love them all but Dsis has just broken my heart
feel free to tell me to grow the fuck up but i'm hurting and i hope you'll have a semblance of sympathy for me....
was telling Dsis how we were actually planning a whole weeks holiday next year - something we'd never contemplated before as it's been too 'big' for us to plan with DD (ASD and huge sensory issues) and was expecting her to be reasonably happy for us.
what i didn't expect was to be told that our parents had asked her (Dsis and her family) if they'd like to all go on holiday together next year, as they miss seeing the youngsters play and laugh together.
that cuts me to the fucking bone - ok, i know DD finds social situations difficult but we live in the same fucking town. a few months ago DM made some pathetic show of trying to get to know DD by spending a half an hour a week with us, but that's fallen by the wayside, DM is too busy.
our DCs are all under 6yrs old
they've never as much as suggested we go on a fucking picnic together never mind a whole holiday.
you don't have to answer this, i'm fully aware it reads quite pathetic, but i had to get it out somewhere.
