Based on her not being invited to the wedding, he probably was more surprised that she able to figure out how to post on TK.

Yeah, he thanked me for the heads up, but didn't seem all that surprised.

Guess someone caught up with her and gave her the meds she forgot to take

Aside from those with medical conditions (or tubes tied or whatever), almost all women can have children... The only "parenting" you did was not have an abortion. Good for you. While it was rude not to invite the MOG, it was worse to try and crash it. You probably did something to deserve the cold shoulder and dirty looks... sorry, but you're acting childish for a mother of grown children.

This whole thread (including the other boards) reminds me of something that my stepdad told my birth father when I was 5 (25 years ago):

"Anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a dad".  

I think that the appropriate word swaps can take place and be related to this whole trainwreck.

CRASHER1

it was they who put themselves OUT THERE.  I was amazed that their entire wedding plans were on the internet for every crasher to see....You brides should know that the KNOT is HIGH RISK exposure.   That goes for facebook as well.  Be careful, let this be a lesson for the future for all you facebook fans and boarders.
