Here's the thing. The kid wanted to go to the circus SO he's getting circus tickets from Lola as a gift. Before we surprise him tomorrow with these tickets, we're taking him out for a birthday dinner and giving him a Bone book he's been wanting (giggling inappropriate at that actually LOL).
Anyhoo, so on Saturday, he gets his party with his friends, pizza & cake at Professor WEM's Golf Course then off to see Gnomeo & Juliet (which Lola and I saw a few weeks ago and let me tell ya it's a badass movie!).
That night, a couple of his friends are sleeping over.
The next DAY, Sunday, Ron's parent's and brother are coming over to have yet ANOTHER birthday celebration for the boy.
Now.
Our "disagreement" is about what to get the boy.
I say he doesn't NEED something just to GET something bc we're taking him to the circus, out for dinner AND he's getting the book but Ron figures he NEEDS to get something.
Fuck. Me.
Kids, well my kids anyway, our shown love through materialism and I hate that shit. I know, I know, it's all good to get presents and be showered with gifts and love on your birthday but when is it TOO much?
When is enough, ENOUGH.
Thots?
PS if you don't hear from me it's cuz Ron threw a wine bottle into the wood chipper and I stupidly tried to save it. Yeh. He threatens that a lot.
O_O Oz is getting all of that and your debating on what else to give him?! I'm gunna go try and put my eyes back in my head now.
ReplyDeleteUm, no. The book can be wrapped up really pretty and there you go. Circus, movie, book, and parties galore? He's a lucky kid. If you feel the need to get him something MORE (Ron) buy him some socks or underwear.
