Thanks for the feedback. That is exactly what I chose to do. I talked to her and let her know that I would take a pass, and did not want to "ruin her day". I told the kids that I was going to work on a house project that has been hanging over my head. My oldest cried when they left and said he really wanted me to go. I told him that I would next time and that we just need to get our bathroom finished. It broke my heart. But hopefully she will see that the only reason I decided not to go was for her.
