I'm sure it's in a lighthearted manner when you say this to your children, and nobody gets offended by it.

Believe me my mom said the same thing after my diagnosis about feeling awful about complaining, and i'm not upset by it. I think I, along with your daughter, know that our mothers would take every bit of suffering away from us if they could. This is the life we were given, and I can speak for myself, that I still have a beautiful life. Thank you for your kind words and I wish your daughter stability in her health and happinessThe Life I Didn't Expecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107885670720187160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071323577655005981.post-18295562712676707202015-05-26T20:31:27.364-07:002015-05-26T20:31:27.364-07:00oh, and I feel I should clarify it is NOT my birth...oh, and I feel I should clarify it is NOT my birthday, but I've heard too may people complaining lately about theres, lolThe Life I Didn't Expecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107885670720187160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071323577655005981.post-40199798675017262142015-05-26T20:29:03.821-07:002015-05-26T20:29:03.821-07:00Oh man that would infuriate me!!

I finally looked at her and basically said I really don't have to worry about it. She then got extremely upset after thinking about what she had been saying and doing. Yes, you will get a beating in front of me too if you complain about these things yeeeessshh.
