Since my niece was born the calendars all revolve around baby M! Comments My friend got one that her son made her with pictures of the. My family is big into personalized calendars! My parents have one in their kitchen, I have one in my office, and my brother has one in his kitchen as well! All opinions are my own.

OCTOBER 27, 2023

My niece goes to Goodwill and buys what I can only describe as bags of junk, and she makes a full-time income selling it on eBay. My son has been doing this for about a year now and averages a few hundred dollars a week. For the Internet, I am using my son’s and paying half the monthly bill, which is only $30.

My sister-in-law requires rice and now my son-in-law requires macaroni and cheese. My nieces, my daughter and I sing all the songs, loudly , to the annoyance of my brother and son-in-law. As people have joined the family it seems that the number of carb dishes has risen significantly. My sister-in-law is neutral.

My son & I currently share a plan and I know that there has to be a comparable plan that would be less expensive than AT&T. I saw that you don’t exchange Christmas gifts with nieces and nephews on your side. What did Christmas and birthday gifts for nieces and nephews look like when they were young?

I’m fifty years old, married almost 25 years, with four sons of various ages ranging from all grown up to still-working-on-it. ? an illustration I did for one of my son’s books. This is a butcher board table my husband and sons made when we were living in a rental with very little useful counter space.

Their Sleep Sheep saved my life as a new mom and while my younger son still uses the Sleep Sheep, my older son adores his Twilight Turtle. Guess what gift I’ll be giving my precious little niece!? If you’ve been reading this site for a while you know Cloud b products are some of my favorites. Very exciting.

If you have a child, grandchild, niece, nephew, godchild, cousin…anyone that might want to go to college in the future this is a painless way to earn free money. I wrote about how I would love my son to be whatever he wants to be in life without the stress of finances or student loans holding him back.

My son has a job at a local pizza place and he gets a free meal after every shift. I’d send some to my nieces to help with their college expenses and would donate half to our local food pantry. My younger son and I have been volunteering there lately and the need seems to be growing more and more.

25 nearly new hot wheel cars for the grand nieces and nephews to use at our house – $1 for all. When she died, I passed the cases on to my son – whose wife has 3 adorable little Yorkies. It’s a favorite of my granddaughter (who is in that horse crazy phase that most girls hit).

My niece has an eye for vintage clothes and toys and has a thriving eBay business. For example, I’ve been telling my son for years that he should start a handyman business. I was an eBay seller in college and made a decent living drop-shipping items from big box stores.
