Where does the time go?

My oldest son will be getting a year older this week. My baby’s going to be 11 years old. Man, time sure does fly by!
We had a birthday party for him and my sister-in-law’s foster child yesterday. We had cake, ice cream, and the kiddos played in the pool. Oh, yeah, there were presents, too. It seemed to me that the presents weren’t “even” if you catch my drift. But, I’ve gotten used to it. I just hope he didn’t notice the difference in the number of presents. THAT’s right, she waited until he went back out to the pool to give her the rest.
Sorry if I sound snipey, but it bothers me. My boys are her own flesh and blood, but they’re not treated like it most of the time. I try not to let it bother me, but it does. It hurts my sweet hubby, too.
We’ll be going to our friends’ house on Friday, and he’ll have another party there. Guess that means I have to get him another present, huh? LOL
Have a great Monday! Be blessed!
