>i was really looking forward to tonight. for the last two or three weeks, g has been talking about how he was going to be in the christmas concert at his school. the thing was, we couldn’t be sure if he really was in it. he often talks about parties he’s supposed to go to and yet has no invitation or he’s been invited to go to someone’s house and yet we don’t have their address, we don’t know their last name and sometimes they had moved out of state months prior.
anyway, we didn’t know whether he was actually supposed to be in it or not. i called my mom yesterday to let her know that there was a possibility that he might be in the concert because i was sure she’d want to go. but i tried to tell her that i didn’t know for sure if g was actually in the concert or not yet.
when mark called me after he dropped g off at school, i asked if he’d finally found someone to ask about g’s involvement. of course he’d not asked, thinking that it was definite just because i’d told my mom, so didn’t ask when he saw the choir teacher setting up on the stage in the auditeria! *sigh*
at this point, i had a sort of half-formed thought that maybe i should work out a way to go to the morning performance just in case it was one of those deals where he was in the morning performance but not in the evening performance. but i was tired this morning and ended up going back to bed for a while. this is where the disappointment comes in.
you see, g was in the concert. and when mark picked him up, he was told that he’d done really well in the concert, although he was bothered some by the flash from people’s cameras. but he wasn’t required to be in the evening concert and he didn’t want to go to the evening concert performance. so i missed my baby’s concert. 😦 i even asked him several times since he’s been home if he’s changed him mind about going, but it’s still no. *double sigh*
here's my gripe...
