Amost mothers day....blah

I dont know if maybe I'm not all that excited because i really didn't like my mother growing up. Or maybe its because i don't want to expect anything for fear of being dissapointed! Probaly a combination of the both! lol I look foward to the day when it matters to Matty. We'll be spending an early mothers day saturday with the inlaws. We usually spent the past few years with matts mom and sibling on that day but seeing as this year we have 2 new moms in the family were also getting a day to ourselves. I'm sure my sister in laws husband will buy her something of great moniatry value to show her his love, probaly a day at the spa. While I'm sure it will be another day at our house. Yes money is tight for us, not thrown around and wasted. As far future holidays we'll be focusing on our family insted of expensive gifts. I found that not having as much money as we use to at times as been stressful, but has tought me a great lesson. I'd much rather have a gift from the heart that my family has put love and effort into. Dont get me wrong jewlery is nice every once in awhile but i'd rather have a gift you cant put a price on! and yay i lost another couple pounds of my baby weight! At least my husband shows me love and afftection everyday and how much I mean to him. I feel lucky I have him as my husband while some people wait for mothers day to feel appriciated i feel it all the time. Getting yard sale item together for the past couple weeks. Ever since mattys came we've seem to have accumlated twice as much stuff as we use to. Hence the reason why decided to stop wasting money on senseless things that have taken up half the house! There are so many baby items we thought we have to have the ened up being a complete waste of money! We've also decided to start yardsaleing for toys. He plays with majority of toys a couple time and gets bored with them. Not to mention the 65% of the toys he just has no intrest in. He seems to enjoy the toys from yardsales the same and i get 10 toys for the price of 1 new. Most all of them have looked brand new! Why waste space in landfills buying new toys when most used ones are just as good? People waste so much in this country!!!!
