I keept hearing about this book and the universe is screaming at me to read it. I have one of each parent, one that cares about nothing but herself and one that actually cares about me. I imagine that day must have felt awful for you when it was supposed to be a joyous occasion. I want to be there at everything for my kids and I do overdo it sometimes, because I didn't have it growing up. And, I just can't understand when people feel obligation to do things for their family instead of being happy and proud to do it.
I need to get the book. Thanks for the reminder :)
