Families are a nightmare. My parents fell out with my grandparents not long before I left home. A couple of years later I ended up leaving closer to my grandparents, therefore I saw them every couple of weeks or so. It was so sad and I always felt like piggy in the middle. Both of my grandparents are now dead, their deaths pretty much unacknowledged by my parents despite my grief. I see my parents two or three times a year and have a chat on the phone every six weeks or so, not a close relationship. I am far closer to my inlaws . I hope that I can always maintain a close relationship with my children but only time and other relationships with tell

[Ain't Nobody Here]

That's sad . Hopefully, because we've experienced the pointlessness of family fall-outs, we'll not make the same mistakes.

 

I was reminding my mum today that she has 6 grandchildren and is about to become a great-grandmother. She said "Really? I never see them". Forgot that ES and I took her for lunch last Sunday . No use pointing out that my boys find it hard to feel anything for her because she had barely any contact with them growing up (we live one mile apart) and they hate the way she's treated me. My brother's 4 kids all live miles away but she's not exactly been super-gran to them either.

We received a thank you card from my niece today. Better late than never, I suppose, but almost 3 months does seem a little unnecessary.

[Grandmashazzie]

Good that she sent it. You never know what she was coping with,so she may just be getting round to thank you cards.

[Groovychook]

That's nice to know that she's acknowledged you

[Ain't Nobody Here]

It is but in typical female fashion, I'm reading things into the way it's written ie just "from" not "love from" .

[WitchHazel]

I would have noticed that too.

Baby Annabelle was born on 10th August, 8lb 3oz .

 

I have bought some really pretty vests and bibs from Next so will send them off for little Annabelle (who is a very pretty baby!) and hopefully, her mum will be looking at the world differently now and perhaps appreciate what family means .

[Grandmashazzie]

Lovely name. As you say when you become a mummy you do view life and family differently,fingers crossed you get a nice thank you and get to meet little one.

[Valkyrie]

Yep, hope it all starts working out nicely - hey you deserve a big bit of nice!

Congratulations Great Auntie

 

For what it is worth I think you have done the right thing buying a little gift. Hopefully the new Mum will appreciate it and thank you.

 

I like the name Annabelle but I don't think I would refer to her as Baby Annabelle, we had a sibling at school who was called Baby .... until she was about three

I still call my sister "baby girl" she's 36 now and my 4 year old nephew thinks it's hilarious

 

Congratulations, great Auntie Vicki
