[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 512890, member: 1514"] Well...I think some of this is normal. I have three now adult kids and I am pretty lucky if I get something from one of them. One will probably get me a card and Jamie may remember to text...a day late...lol. They consider sending me a happy birthday on FB enough. Blah. When my dad was alive we always did stuff for my dad for the major holidays...birthday, Xmas and fathers day. And boy were those hard to do because he had everything he could ever possibly want. In the end I discovered Incredible Edibles and that became my best friend...lol. He loved fruit and I could have that delivered and then I would get everyone on my phone and pass it around. My oldest granddaughter was only 4 when he died so while she really loved him, she didnt see him very often. She loved when she was with him and he always called her his princess and she would call him if she was here when I suggested it but it would never occur to her all on her own. Heavens she would have no idea when his birthday was. She doesnt know when mine is...lol. Its funny though, he gave her two really nice presents not long before he died and she will not even think of parting with them. One is a large outdoor swingset. We got it all put together about two weeks before he died and she wanted to call him and told him that she was swinging on the swing he got her and he talked to her so long that day. It was a really nice conversation. We would have never known he would be gone so soon. [/QUOTE]
