After much discussion with DH and emotional angst on my part, we decided that DH would not come to my sister's wedding with me. Well I guess I neglected to take into account telling my sister. I feel like I'm having to defend our choices to her, and she is NOT happy. I get it. Neither am I. But DH and I have made a number of sacrifices this year based on what is best for us as husband and wife and for the future of our family, and none of them have been easy. I just hate how often money makes everything more difficult.
