My 6 sons are all grown men and five of them have kids. With 18 grand-kids and 4 great grand-kids, it just got to be impossible for me to keep up on what everyone likes, so we finally stopped giving gifts and decided to try and just get the families together to celebrate. Most times everyone is so busy with their lives and kids that they can't always join in. Kind of sad how fast life moves along for new families. I'm so thankful I lived and raised kids in the slow lane where families always got together. I miss that so much. My husband and I sometimes look at all the toys because of how much they have changed and how many are on the market now days. |
