[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 166094, member: 1233"] I tink it is neat that he thought of you with the possum. He clearly knows you and what your priorities are on this issue at least. (and baby possums are SO cute and adorable!! - where are the pics?????) It is also neat that he remembered DF on father's day. themonth late, well, I dunno. My mom had to literally FORCE my dad to celebrate holidays with us. He felt you should show your love and appreciation EVERY day, not just a few days a year. BUT it is important to teach children to receive gifts graciously AND give them to others. We do holidays when we can be together, NOT on a specific day. This makes married life easy for ME because husband's family feels the specific day is crucial. So we can do a holiday with them on the day, and if we do it the next day or next weekend, well, as long as we are all together it is all good. Different families and people have different ways of expressing love, even on holidays. If it bugs you or df that he didn't say anything on mom's day then you (or df if he is the one bothered) need to say something to dude. Maybe he can put it on his calendar for next year???? Hugs, and give you new wildbaby a smoochie for Auntie Susie! [/QUOTE]
