I told my 8yr old nephew he could spend the night last weekend but I had to cancel because I was sick. I told my sister to tell him he could come over this coming Sat. Right after that a friend asked me if I wanted to go to a museum exhibit with her on that Sat night. She already had tickets and no one to go with. So I called my sister and told her that instead of him spending the night I would come over during the day and take him to a movie and out to eat. At first she said she wasn't going to tell him he wasn't going to spend the night because he would be really disappointed. She said I could tell him myself. After feeling bad all day I finally called her back and she said she would tell him after all. Now tonight she calls saying, "Didn't you tell your friend you already had plans with Christopher?" I was like, "Well I didn't think a change in plans would be that big of a deal". And she says, "Well, he was REALLY disappointed". I asked her if she told him I was moving in two weeks and he could come stay at my brand new apt then (yeah I finally decided on one). She said "He doesn't care about that, its two weeks from now". So now I feel all bad. But don't I have the right to change my plans? Is that really so bad? I wish I could call and talk to him but their phone is turned off. I hate to think of him being sad.
