Ikr , I’m not in a mental state for another “pop pop made all the grand-kids burgers but no one showed up” post 😭

It reminds me of this heartbreaking video I saw of a young woman (maybe 20-23, if that), who was breaking down making decorations for her younger sister's first birthday since their mom had passed. She was asking for advice making decor and stressing that the RSVPs weren't coming in. Local moms came out in FORCE. There was a mini pony, it was like a kids party from a tv show.

I saw the first video and was so devastated I was too far away to help, but the warmth seeing the update was so amazing (and bittersweet)
