Maps are good...... I love my plastic maps of the states. So sturdy and you can write on them and spill food on them and leave them in the muddy floorboards and they survive! Love em!
You can probably tell that I've kept that story in mind. 10 years have passed and I still remember. I last saw this son on Mother's Day at church. I looked down at my own son and renewed my vow not to given to every whim.big brown horse said:Hen.23
It is stories like that that make me so happy that I didn't give in to my daughter's every whim and desire. She has to earn everything all by herself. I also do not accept excuses and I never let her turn into "the victim"...never. We have a wonderful mother daughter relationship.
Just a suggestion, you don't have to keep it just because they gave it to you. It's yours to do as you wish with, so if you don't want it/play it, post that puppy on eBay and tuck the $ you make on it back for something you need.lorihadams said:.we have a wii system, and we hardly play it, it was a gift from my MIL to my DH. We didn't ask for it, we always ask for money in lieu of gifts so that we can save up for what we need. Everyone says that they don't want to give us money, that's no fun. But what is the purpose of giving us all this stuff that we don't use and takes up space in the house?
Hand-me-downs. My parents and grandparents hate that most of the clothes I have for my daughter come from my BF's daughter.
