I'm A Bad Grandma :(

I remembered all week that my granddaughter's birthday was coming up, but this morning, when I woke up, I had completely forgotten about it until I looked at the calendar to check my hours for work today :( Today, this little angel is 3 years old! Can you believe it? Where does time go??? I'm so upset with myself because I completely forgot to ask for today off from work & now I just talked to my son & he's going to pick his daughter up, which means I could have gotten to see her if only I would have requested today off :(
Sadly, the last time I saw her was December 23, 2006. Her Mom promised me that I could start seeing her at least twice a month.....well, needless to say, that hasn't gone as planned :( Yeah, I could probably take her to court for visitation rights, but I honestly shouldn't have to! If her parents were more responsible (and yes, by that I'm referring to my son, too), I'd be able to see her! But they were both just kids themselves when she was born & they're both still kids now! Maybe someday, they'll both grow up & realize how important it is for this little girl to have a family. I can only pray!

Can you believe that's 2 blog updates from me in one day? I was just going to edit my first post, but then I realized that this little girl deserves a post all to herself :)
Happy Birthday, my angel!
Love,
Grandma
