It's my daughter's birthday today. She's my youngest of 5.
Having a large family means it's always been a bit costly so birthdays have never been big elaborate affairs for me & my family and none of my children have generally ever made a fuss. They just accept my best efforts for what they are. For this I'm grateful.
My husband has two children from a previous marriage ( my 5 are not his)
Generally on their birthdays we ( this doesn't include my children & is always "conveniently" arranged on a day they're with their own dad) go out for a meal to celebrate the birthday. I always make a cake, buy a small gift and a card. Ok maybe it's not a huge amount but it's a gesture I make.
Today, my daughter hasn't even had a card from my husband. I think if I was to mention it to her she'd probably just shrug her shoulders. So it is just me having a whinge but I feel so peeved. AIBU?
