so, when i was growing up, i had this one babysitter. and she... i guess.... loved us. she loved us so much that when she got married, i was in the wedding.
when i was 14, i was a junior bridesmaid in my babysitter's wedding. she's probably twice as old as i am. she's great and everything - LOVES our family, totally sweet, and loves us.
i'll call her M.
my mother recently suggested to me that i include M somehow in my wedding day. i was like... uh... well... i already have all my bridesmaids. i don't think i'd ask her to be a personal attendant and yet i wouldn't want to give her a crap job like guest book (i feel like that would be just awful). and honestly, the thought never occurred to me to include M in my wedding day. my mom said "well, she loves us. and she loves you. she wanted you to be part of her day. you just have to include her somehow."
i hate that she said that to me because i know that just because i was a bridesmaid in someone else's wedding, it doesn't mean i have to include that person in mine. but i still feel a little obligated.
thoughts? feelings? judgments? suggestions?
