I asked one of my 17 y.o. boys what he wantes for Christmas, and this was his heartfelt response; "You don't need to get me anything. I'm old enough now to know that you don't need material things to make you happy." *tear* *sniff* 4951

The other one handed me a paper with the name of a video game on it. The boys and I have had to pinch pennies for the past 8 years of me being a single mom. As a result, they are truly grateful and non-materialistic. Hopefully, that will make up for the other ways I'm sure I screwed them up-LMAO! Yeah, of course he will get somethingEmoticon 4951

and physical education I received from her.”
