But then having it at the apartment brought more stress b/c I was worried how I was going to fit everyone in my tiny apartment! But it ended up working out well, like I always say, things happen for a reason, and even though I was sad some people couldn't make it, it was probably for the best because I don't think my apartment could have handled any more people!
Thanks to my Dad, my sister and my niece Natalie, my brother and his fiancee Kalinda, Loryn and Aron, Laurissa, Shannon and Brodi, and Nick for coming make Charlie's 4th birthday party special!
I'm so thankful to have you all in my lives, and wanting to be apart of my kids lives. If you had asked me 10 years ago if I thought that at 25 I would be a single mom to two little boys I would have called you crazy.
But sometimes life is crazy and we just gotta accept the cards we've been dealt. Well you guys have made this an easier pill to swallow! I think Charlie had a good time... having the little kiddos to play with helped.
He seemed a lil down at moments though... maybe this is only something Mommie's can pick up though. He did ask me once why his Daddy and his Mimi and Poppy weren't there though.
And his missing his daddy is the only reason I agreed to let The Douchebag stop by for a little bit after the party. As much as I hate him and don't want to see him, I knew Charlie needed a daddy fix.
Things went okay, we managed to be civil. It perked Charlie up to be able to show his Dad his presents, and to have Daddy read him a story and tuck him into bed.
It's times like that that make me wish The Douchebag was not a douchebag and that things hadn't turned out this way because I know Charlie misses having a "family", not broken pieces.
But I know that The Douchebag will never really change and no matter how much he says he is sorry or begs for forgiveness, he is not worth my time.
