If you think brides are having a rough time ... try the birthday parties for kids these days ... I was so pleased when our son turned 10 two years ago as that was the age of his last "party" and therafer he could ask two friends to do an activity (movie, bowling, etc.) as we never knew how much of what to have or how many goodie bags ... one year you would get lots of yes RSVP's and little attendance and the next only a few RSVP's and end up with 12 kids!

Don't give up on your friends ... just put those who are participating in your adventure as you'd like into a place to always be treasured and welcomed when they are ready. My closest friend seemed to disappear at our placements but when we had the need to disrupt one of our placements, she was there every day ... so you never know what is going on in their life that they aren't or can't but that doesn't mean they don't care.
