Thanksgiving

I am pleased to write about a nice family experience with the babies. Last week we celebrated Thanksgiving with my husband's family and it went surprisingly well.

A few weeks ago my husband and I discussed everything and decided that we would celebrate the holiday with his family with a few notes. If I was attacked (again!!), or our children were ignored (again!!) then we would leave. We left our house with a positive feeling and a true desire that everything went well. Everything going well for us and our children has been our only true desire - even though it is not what people believe.

When we arrived we were made to feel welcomed. Even my husband's sister, the one that has been doing all of the attacking & ignoring, scooped up a baby. It was nice.

All in all both my husband and myself had a great holiday. The only thing that would've made it better would have been for a public apology from his sister for her previous public attack, but I can always ask Santa. As long as nothing like that happens again, we should be on the healing path. I can say, however, I will not be treated that way again as it is not accepted behavior by myself or my husband no matter how anyone else feels about it. Basically, the future family relations are in her/their hands. Hopefully, they will make the right choice.
