thoughts and kind a vent
We bought tickets to take T to Elmo live this Sat way back in March. He went last year with my SIL and MIL and had a blast. So we wanted to take him this year. Thru work I was able to get good seats with a parking pass. Well DH just called and said "My Mom called and wanted to know if T had plans Friday night" I said "No remember I have to work nights this week" He said "Ok well she wants to take him to see Elmo live" I am a little hurt and pissed. I know we have talked about it in front of her before. But she told DH she didnt know about it. He asked her why she didnt check with him frist to see, what if he wasnt able to go. On one hand I want her to spend time with T, she always leaves him out and does thing for/with my neieces. But on the other hand I am kind of like wtf now why do we even bother taking him.
Would you take your LO twice? Or should I try to sell my tickets (If he does not go to Elmo live on Saturday T will be able to make his baseball game). but I still would like to take him.
I know I am kind of being a baby about this, but still its like really. I know that had she not offered to take him I would be upset. He has so much fun with his little cousins (one is only 3 days younger) I know he will have fun. But I am a little po'd

This exactly. It was kind of her to think of him, but she should have checked his schedule first before purchasing tickets. We took Sophia last year and I would have hated to miss seeing her experience it.
I agree as well but Im not super pro-MIL. Its not fair for you to miss out on an experience with your child b/c she wants to take him... sorry charlie.
I agree too. We bought tickets for the Friday night show and I mentioned to MIL that we were going and she said "oh, I saw that and was thinking I would like to go". I just wanted to scream "noooo!" Sometimes I just want to do things just the three of us and not feel like she has to be a part of every special thing we do.
