When It Rains....

...it pours.

The Breadman's Grandma died Friday morning.  We both only had one grandparent alive and they both died within five days of each other.  Really, unbelievable. 

To make matters worse, The Bean's birthday is this weekend, so many plans we have had for months are being diverted or changed.  He is certainly old enough to understand what is happening.  But, it still doesn't take away from the sting that his Dad can't come to everything.  We bought very expensive tickets months ago to see The Blue Man Group on Sunday from 2-4.  And what hours are visitation?  2-4.  *Sigh. 

I gotta be a MOM and make his birthday special and not one that he will remember as the birthday when both my Great Grandmother's died. 

I'll be back someday with good news.  I promise!  Even if I have to make it up!

  1. Shara so sorry about the passing of the grandmothers. We have had a couple of deaths in the past 2 weeks. younger and unexpected. I am sure your son will understand. Can you grab someone to use your husband's ticket? We saw them in Boston very very funny. and your right the tickets are not cheap. Happy Birthday to the Bean!

  4. Oh, no! I'm so sorry for you family's losses. I hope the next few surprises are only the good, happy, joyful ones. And happy birthday to your boy, and congratulations to you - how many years has it been since you became a mom?
