ugh dammit

[LLL]

for this past couple weeks I've been stressed out about this work thing requires international travel. Because of the players involved I wasn't able to get the dates changed and I would have returned the date of ds' birthday. Well now it looks as though the event will be taking place after his birthday which is awesome but now means I will miss his graduation . dammit, dammit, dammit. I won't get to see him in his little cap and gown. this fucking blows

That does suck, I'm sorry

[Deleted]

that's crap!

can you maybe do a pre- or re-enactment?

[daisyheadmaizie]

I'm sorry. That totally blows. Can your H record it for you? Or can you FaceTime in and watch?

[LLL]

I'll ask H to record, I don't think we can FaceTime it because the events will most likely be taking place at the same time. We're buying the cap and gown so I guess that's a plus? I'm not even excited about this stupid trip anymore

[Deleted]

maybe you'll get re-excited once you're there? i hope so. you know this kid is going to graduate a ton more times, and you can TOTALLY con him into putting the hat and gown back on for photos with you .

Aww, it's ok. The plans are made; make the very best of this exciting professional opportunity and know that you'll get to celebrate your little graduate when you get back, one-on-one to make him feel super special all over again.

And, just so you know, you are setting a great example for both of them by being a smart, capable professional woman. That counts for a lot, mom. ((hugs))
