i'm really upset!!!
i got elected to organize the after season party for my boys soccer team. well i asked the parent who elected me if she could(she's a stay at home healthy mom) or someone else who's healthy could. she said no problem she would do it. i told her to just let me know when and where and even if i wasn't feeling well my husband would get the boys there.
i just emailed the coach because i haven't heard anything and i found out they had it last week.
my boys have been asking me about it everyday.
i called the mom who was organizing it and her husband answered(she wasn't home) i told him what my call was regarding and he said that his wife told him that my husband was going to bring 2 of the boys but not the third.
we would never exclude one of our boys unless they were sick.no one ever talked to my husband.
it was really hard for me to say no to taking the project on. i was so proud of myself for saying no.now i feel like my kids are being punished for me not having the energy to organize the party.like i didn't already have enough guilt over my m.s. parenting.
so what do i do now to make this right for my boys??? they really want to see their friends and were expecting a party. i really want to smack that woman(since she obviousely excluded us). i won't though for my boys sake.
oh and did i mention that my husband helped coach and was the only parent who would commit to being at the practices the coach wasn't there for, and every game he stayed with the players keeping the ones not playing happy while the rest of the parents watched and relaxed.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
sucks and certainly doesn't help with stress and holiday spirit.
they had the party at a pizza place
good luck
Have you tried talking to her and telling her how you feel. Maybe it's all a misunderstanding or something. I hope so. It's hard to believe that someone can be so mean! Especially to someone so sweet as you!
I remember that the coach for my daugher's softball team didnt' call us to tell us when pictures were. I was soooooo pissed at him! I was at every practice, and I never hear him say a word!
When I finally talked to him, he said he was so sorry that he must have over looked her name. He kept saying he was sorry. I felt so bad for him. It was just a mistake. I guess it was a test to see how "Christian" like I was gonna act. I did mess up at the beginning, but later I told him I knew he didn't do it on purpose and I was sorry for getting so mad at him.
I believe if you handle this in a godly way, God will bless you for it. I know you are angry. I would be too! It's one thing to mess with you, but a total different thing to mess with your kids! I hate to see my kids hurt.
Try to remember that most people aren't mean just to be mean. There is usually a reason for it. Hopefully she just forgot or something.
You are too sweet of a person to let something like this get to you. You just do what you know is right, and let God handle the rest. If she did it on purpose, she will reap what she sowed, don't worry! If it was a misunderstanding, you will ruin your witness if you attack her.
I love you! You can do this!
God bless you!!!!!

i know i shouldn't be mad at myself but i sure am.
thanks emmie i needed a laugh
Do you need help? What's the address...I'm 1/2 italian, I can do some damage...

Get pizza and invite them over
maybe you & another parent could help each make a team banner and pass around the table to for each to sign them & hang in their rooms.
Joanne's will probably give you VIP discount for material (lol)
Don't sweat that lady she is evil and it will come back to her.

I'd have a couple of their best friends off the team over one night for pizza and explain to their parents why you are doing this. Maybe they have some "insight" as to why she did this and can tell you.
