We really, really try hard to...Great post, Angela!<br /><br />We really, really try hard to live with our means. It was a conscious decision at the beginning of our marriage; that we would tithe and also be as generous as possible in other ways (which has changed over the years, but something we still focus on with the boys, especially). I won't lie and say it's easy; it's not. We're looking to move this spring and we're constantly reminding each other that wants and needs are not the same thing! But, we try (emphasis on TRY) to remember that everything we have is God's anyway, and that we're to be good stewards of all the blessings we've been given. It sounds like you're focusing on the same thing!<br /><br />I've thought, too, that I overdid the buying at Christmas this year, even though I didn't totally blow the budget. However, we never (and I mean never) just go out and buy the kids a toy/game/whatever just because. Christmas and birthdays are it! They are starting to save up their own money to buy things throughout the year that they want. This alleviates my guilt somewhat! :)<br /><br />Merry Christmas, and sorry for the book I just wrote!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045698668001406418.post-26906592993404678142009-12-03T15:42:18.574-06:002009-12-03T15:42:18.574-06:00At AWANA on Wed night at our church, the boys earn...At AWANA on Wed night at our church, the boys earn "bucks" that they then use at the "AWANA store" (tables of small trinkets, tools, etc) to pick out Christmas gifts for their parents. They did their shopping last night but are saving their presents...I think it's SO sweet to see what they choose for us!<br /><br />Another great idea!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045698668001406418.post-11422034391486480812009-11-29T19:20:48.045-06:002009-11-29T19:20:48.045-06:00I have a draft post written about this very subjec...I have a draft post written about this very subject.
