It is something I knew would happen at some point. It’s not something I was necessarily looking forward to.
It was St. Patrick’s Day weekend. The Kansas City area has quite a few celebrations. We had decided to try out the Brookside parade, it was touted to be family friendly.
We decided to leave Bella at home. We did a family activity without a member of our family. It was going to be cold, and she would have to sit in one place for a couple of hours, neither of which she would enjoy. So we got her a babysitter.
In the end it was a good decision, I know she wouldn't have enjoyed it. But it's sad to realize that as our family changes and we want to do more activities, they aren't always going to be able to accommodate her. We will have to leave her out.
We know at times we will have to do it, it just makes us feel like horrible parents.
