Yesterday was our 12th wedding Anniversary. Only my mother on my side of the family is still a Witness. I receieved cards and phonecalls from all my family, even though we've just recently had a family death and most of them are aboard to arrange the funeral.. My wife's family are ALL dubs, and she is very close to her family. How many phonecalls/Cards do you think we recieved from them?
Yeah , thats right...None.
I suspected this would happen so I made sure that the day was really special for her, but I couldnt help noticing that deep down they really hurt her.
We know how our witness friends and relatives can be, and the best we can do is be above it, realize their limitations, and be the bigger person. Maybe one day they will see the light. Meanwhile, cherish each other!
Agree with Special K - enjoy this time in your lives together - sure it would be nice to share that with family -but maybe it's time to make your own 'family' that doesn't include blood relations. Just a random thought.
Ahhh Shucks. Thanks guys. Bought my wife Chocolates from the "Australian Chocolate company" which are her abosolute fave. Took her to a show and dinner and spent a small fortune on underwear (for her) and loads and loads of roses. I think she enjoyed the day
Zoewrex. We've done just that. We have a few friends that are closer to us than our own family. Thanks for the random thoughts
