Congrats on your graduation! It is a big deal even if other family members aren't there for your shining moment!
My daughter is graduating from high school in June & she is feeling a bit put off by relatives not wanting to come, (both my brothers & their wives just had babies, my sister has three young ones also.) High gas prices, groceries & every day living expenses has made them opt out of coming where they all came for my son's graduation 2 years ago. Don't take it personally (I know it is hard!) Be proud of what you have accomplished & enjoy your family on Mother's Day.
Why don't you suggest to your mom (if it hasn't already been planned) to combine all three celebrations afterward so that family & friends can all be together?
Congratulations again & Best Wishes! |
