You have to treat yourself at some point; if not, will you lose the positive you who treats the children? Well penned.

You are right. It is funny how we go in spurts with the spending thing.

I often feel guilty for buying myself something when I feel the money could be used for something more deserving - glad your hubby talked you into it!

This was 1974 and I have never forgotten it. We had a two year old and a one year old and it was a beautiful light pink car coat with white fur around the face.
