Tammy » I think ATM machines contribute to this in a big way. They all think you just go to that machine and “get more money.” In spite of the woes that I will continue to share, I do know we are very blessed! Thanks for being a loyal reader and friend

My whole family felt Wizzy’s pain when seeing the picture of the golf ball hit. It made us all hurt just looking at it. I can’t imagine how she she managed to finish her game. Personally I would have done the same thing you mentioned in your disclaimer…boo hoo hoo….OWWWWW…etc, etc, etc.

When do you think they out grow the Never Enough Syndrome??? I am really looking forward to it with my youngest! She somehow thinks she was dropped off in a rich family and – since I balance the checkbook and pay the bills – I know she is sorely mistaken!

Thanks for sharing as always! Truly you are blessed!

Gayle » I cannot believe you didn’t get her a graduation gift??? Geez what kind of Mean Mom are you????

Melinda » I know it’s hard to tell my twins apart. ROFL. I do believe I can tell your girls apart but then again, that was many years ago!

I am LMAO at Gayle’s comment! My kids have made that same remark before! Isn’t ever enough that we PAY for the party, we HAVE to give them a gift! And not JUST a gift, a GOOD gift. We try to teach them but I sometimes they still don’t grasp the concept of how much we spend.

I am so glad to learn which of your twins is Wizzy. Have been trying to figure that out from your stories and of course it’s hopeless. At least NOW I know. Of course I still don’t know who’s R and who’s E but guess that’s only fair cause you probably don’t know who’s M and who is A, right? LOL My A is like your Wizzy, isn’t that funny. She’s the second born twin and the “kinder” twin. Much more considerate than her sister although she can’t sing. That’s another talent we missed out on.

SORRY to hear about her golf ball hit. That is scary when you think it could have just as easily hit her in the head AND that would have been awful. I keep telling my girls they need to take up golf and tennis. Guess I should just sign them up? They’ve never been as athletic as yours though.

Have a great birth month. Good luck with that and let me know how it goes but do me a favor please and don’t tell any of my kids, okay? I like having a birth month myself but doing it for the kids? Come on! JK, you know!!

My “never enough syndrome” story…

Teenage daughter just graduated from high school. Even though husband moved out of state for a new job last January, I stayed in town so my SENIOR could graduate with her friends (this meant apartment living with minimal possessions and NO husband for 6 months). I threw her a VERY NICE party for graduation, I bought her a laptop to take to college and we gave her a week at the beach with her friends after graduation.

At the family party, after opening gifts from everyone else, she turns to me and asks “Did YOU get me anything for graduation??”

Just imagaine the look I gave her back….
