So I already forwarned my bios that christmas was going to be tuff! My brother had moved in and decided thhat he would move and give me a week warning and screw me! There goes christmas money
So I causally mention to the older ones
ME: I know you guys are excited for christmas. But this yr is going to be tight. So mommy might be only able to get you one gift.
DD8: its ok mommy we still have family
DS11: yeah mom family is most important.
I knew right there I was doing somthing right!
DS11 has high functioning autisum and still ia a polite little gentlemen.
In the store the other day he walks up to an older lady and says do you need help mam
The lady commented on how wonderful and thoughtful he was. He alway say exuse me mam or sir in the store and tries to be helpful to everyone. Even offers to help neighbors with yard work.
DD8 does awesome in school is always practing and reading. She's the best little helper and always cleans and helps with chores. She my go to girl kinda of a drama queen though LOL
So I was given a shuffle for her. DD8 birthday was the 7th. It didn't work
However my friend of 15ys bought her one even though she hasn't seen her since she was born.
So now I have to think of a great gift for DS11 these kids are wonderful.
I guess it just burns me up to think of all the undeserving little shit heads that get spoiled all yr round.
