My ex and I always agreed that we would always have gifts under the tree for each other. But it's true that moms always end up with less gift than anyone else...not really fair is it. We also get the crummier gifts.
Now, don't get me wrong - Christmas for me has always been about family, and gifts are about finding that perfect something as a token of your love and appreciation - but that man (the ex) would buy me stuff like a can of wood stain, and I am not a crafty or handy person and wouldn't even know how to open the can.
Glad to hear he's your ex! Wood satin isn't even a gift I would give an enemyI always be sure and give my mother a really nice gift, this year it'll be a 7 day cruise!
Ah I'm tempted to take all the credit for the gift, especially with the cute comment, but I can't. There are 5 of us all pitching in for the trip for our mother, so I won't be footing the bill entirely, although I wish I made enough to do so!
