I'm deeply hurt......

[DianaB]

Thanks so much, you two! I'm glad that she said it to my husband because he never believed that his family felt that way. Now he knows and he knows how much it hurt me. I'll have to tell the kids later because right now I think that I'd just start crying but they know how I've been treated in the past so it won't be a surprise to them. The sad part is is that Glen's brother has a wonderful wife and she's probably included in all of my MIL's remarks too. I'll have to talk to her later.

Janet, you asked if she had other grandchildren who would receive something and the answer is yes. My MIL has always had favorites- each of her daughters have 2 children, a granddaughter and 3 grandsons. Even my kids know that she's had favorites. Isn't that sad?

Jaci was helping to clean her house one time and found a large prism. You know, like you hang in the window to make rainbows on the wall (Jaci has several in her window.). Jaci admired it and then someone told her where to put it, but by the end of the day my MIL gave it to her favorite granddaughter. Jaci still talks about it.

I'm always reminded when this granddaughter's birthday is but there's hardly ever mention about Jaci's birthday which is the next day. My husband has noticed that one too. I could go on and on with stuff like that. I've always tried to ignore it but at times it was hard. This really feels like a slap in the face, but I'll get over it.
