Re: open letter wednesday
Dear ob from this morning:
You weren't as bad as my sister told me you would be, but telling me that I'm probably going to fail the next glucose test and end up with gestational diabetes was mean. How about we just wait and see what happens hmmmm??
But, even though my blood pressure is technically 'normal', thanks for scheduling monthly ultrasounds so I can see my little boy. That was pretty cool
Smooches, your patient
Dear sister:
I know you think you know everything about everything, but lets not forget that the last time you had a baby was 8 years ago. Things have changed. People have changed. So chill the f*(k out please. And thank you.
Your sister.
Dear Pop,
It's okay to go. I know there are many things you still intended to do, but somehow we'll do it all for you. You have accomplished more in your life than most people do and you are an inspiration to us all. You'll be missed every single day, but it's okay to go. Stop being so damn stubborn
I promise I'll start writing. I'll write the book you've always told me I could write. I'll fight the best I can to keep your house in the family somehow!! You are loved. You are admired. You are missed already!
XOXO Your Sadie
Dear God,

Dear self,
WTF is wrong with you? I've been going to the gym for a few weeks now and I really thought it would help with how tired I used to be... but it seems like you are even more tired now than you were before. So much so that I want to fall asleep in the car in the morning.. Not good! Please fix yourself!
dear self,
get back to the regular gym routine!

Dear Cousin,
I will not be attending your baby shower. If this was a baby shower for your first child, I would be there in a heartbeat, and if I was unable to attend I'd definitely send along a gift. Alternately, if there had been a large number of years between your youngest and the new baby, or if you were finally having a baby of the opposite gender (which you already have both sons and daughters), then I might consider it. But, none of those situations apply here. Your toddler son is going to have a baby brother.
I hope that you understand where I'm coming from. I would be surprised if you have many relatives there. Nobody in our family has ever had a shower for their second child, never mind their sixth.
I love you, but I'm not going to this.
Your Cousin
Dear Cousin's Friend who is throwing the shower,
Notwithstanding the fact that this is a a shower for a sixth child, I can't figure out your invitation. If I were going, which I'm not, would I honestly be expected to bring two gifts? One from myself, and another to be included in a group gift?
And a four hour shower?? Really? How many people do you think are really going to come?
Tacky.
Signed,
Not Going
