Re: feeling sad 
DA…I know your sadness is because you do so much and all you want is to be remembered.
I don’t remember my best friends’ anniversaries…and we’ve been friends for over 15 years…you’d think I’d gotten the hang of it by now right? I don’t remember their kids’ birthdays…I have them programmed in my phone so I get reminders but I don’t remember them otherwise.
When will you guys get it…your MIL is not your mother. She is not required to remember your birthday, your anniversary, your kids’ birthdays or any dates for that matter. Do what you can to be good to her because she is the mother of your husband and she deserves respect. But why care if she doesn’t remember?
And why are you comparing yourself with the other bahus? Do you live with them? Do you have to see this day and night?
I know its easier said than done but you need to have much more control over yourself…do not let these things upset you.
Did you enjoy your anniversary? Do you and hubby have a good marriage? Are you happy?
Then nothing else matters.
Btw, happy anniversary.
