So, he can go to a music concert! He asked by e-mail if I could possibly change it. He said that he was "hoping to go" and if I can't change it, "I totally totally understand." He didn't make it sound like he already had tickets as the concert is at a county fair, so I think he was going to wing it and see if he could get tickets the day of.
Is it wrong for me to be upset? My daughter was a preemie. It's a miracle that she's even here! To be putting himself before family to me is just assinine. What say you?
I can't adjust the time, as I purposely planned it in the evening after the dinner hour as it's just cake, ice cream, and gift opening. My sister also works that day, so I planned it to be in the evening so she could come. Ugh....this is so irritating.

thats ur baby's uncle, not her father. i suggest u let go the idea that one missing person who is not the baby's father is going to ruin the whole party. ask urself if u are a perfectionsist.
perhaps its urself u need to look at. the fact she was a preemie makes her special but don't let it become the excuse for everything otherwise u will end up with a brat of a child and a wreck of a family.

you're actually not incorrect, plan it for the nighttime, because it is your loved ones and your daughter's special occasion! If it became your husband, it is diverse, yet your brother, however in a effective way asked, wouldn't have any expectancies of you to alter it. I say tell him: here is the time and place, in case you additionally could make it, that could be great! carry the Reddi-whip! ;) Congratulations and noticeably satisfied b-day to your woman toddler!

Keep the time, but don't be offended if he doesn't come. It will only cause undue stress.
Basically, it's between changing everything based on ONE invitees schedule or keeping everyone else content. Keep the majority content and let him make the decision. Besides...even county fair concert tickets can be hard to get if it's someone good (trust me).

My son was a preemie so I understand how important that first birthday is. You have your party and if he goes to the concert fine, as her uncle it is up to him to call and schedule a time to come celebrate her only first birthday.

you don't have to adjust to his schedule. you're the host of the party. he has to adjust to your schedule. he's just the guest.
hey if he has to go to the concert then so be it. he's not the one celebrating the birthday, right?
