Mary it's not wrong. Remember, it's the thought behind the gift that counts. And your gift sounds pretty awesome to me.
Janet.........I come from a rather large family, with a rather large extended family. I think that whole extended part got drilled into me somewhere while I was raising my kids. <acronym title="Mother-in-Law">mother in law</acronym> adored xmas, it was totally her holiday. And she loved spoiling her grandkids rotten buying them special gifts that often parents couldn't afford, which they loved and adored her for (not only that but that she took the time ect). But I watched as grandkids turned into grandkids AND great grandkids.......and then great great grandkids........... And I decided back then, not me. Families grow, it's what they do.
I'll admit I've gone a bit crazy on some xmases, but even then I try to keep the dollar amount down and the gift number down. And like <acronym title="Mother-in-Law">mother in law</acronym>, xmas is really the only holiday I actually really get in to and enjoy. But from the very beginning with Kayla......I knew that someday down the road there would be greats coming along. So, like I've done my whole life......I made a plan about Nana gift giving. I rarely go over 3 gifts, usually it's 2 and they're pretty darn nice (maybe not in cost but in that the child really is wanting it in the worst way). Great grandkids I most likely won't buy for at all when they come along.....I may chose another more affordable route instead if I do anything.
But when you do like <acronym title="Mother-in-Law">mother in law</acronym> was doing.........adult children, adult grandchildren, great grandchildren (both adult and child) AND great great grandchildren.......omg! We kept telling her to STOP already. One she couldn't afford to buy for that many people realistically and two the job of shopping and wrapping left her exhausted until like march......and she ordered most of it.
Why did she keep it up? Because she'd always done it and she thought everyone expected her to, regardless of what we said. The woman stashed treats and holiday crafts nursing home staff and volunteers gave her for xmas to give to the great grandkids and great great grandkid when we visited her, she had herself in a real snit because she couldn't buy them presents. omg........And you know what? The kids still adored what she gave them that year, and still have the little craft decor items and put them out. (sort of goes to show cost really doesn't matter to a child)
Me? I don't want caught up in that loop, no sirree bob. So to prevent it I've compromised with Nana Rules. lol Four kids, 3 sils, and 8 grandkids.........can be a big ouch on the wallet. (and only katie has her tubes tied ugh lol )
