So both my little sisters have found their future husbands and we’ve been getting to know them and their families by inviting them to our houses or going to theirs. It’s something we do in our culture, we bond with the families so we get to know the families of the guys thy our sisters will marry.

The older one already got engaged to her man and is set to be married around April or may.

The one whose 1 year younger then her, we got invited to his house and we went and met everyone in his family. It was good. Now my mom is inviting them this weekend but not to the house, she rented small restaurant hall to have the dinner and all because there’s a lot of people in his family. So my mom says don’t mind but I’m not gonna invite you, I was like okay that’s fine. She’s like yeah don’t mind it’s just cos your kids are small and they get cranky and plus no one can drop you home cos it’ll get late, so just miss out this one. I said yeah okay it’s fine.

But it did make me feel some type of way. I really try not to get hurt but sometimes I feel like because I have 3 young kids, I can’t be included in most of the things they do. (I’m the only one married and have kids)

As the oldest sibling and the oldest sister, I feel like I should be going to these family dinners too or at least be included. Idk. I just felt sad.

My mom is an amazing woman, she loves me and my kids so how can I be hurt over this but it sucks cos I am.

Sometimes it feels like no one wants to hang out with you or ask you to go somewhere because you have kids, and when it comes from your own family it’s a little upsetting. Idk if y’all understand what I’m trying to say but sigh. I’ll get over it I guess.
