Please God!

*this post should be considered answered, because God got to my prayer before i could post it:)

I always find Christmas shopping for my kids both fun and depressing.  We dont buy them anything during the year, so they are so excited and appreciative.
All of their friends, on the other hand, are the complete opposite.

Every time they go to walmart, something new is in the cart, and their rooms are overflowing with crap that they dont treat well, and have broken and shoved everywhere.
I got Giada her first Lalaloopsy doll this year.  I was quick to find out from all the moms, that their kids (age 4 mind you) already had all of them, and they were getting them 3 new ones this year.  3??  wth?  why??
Nicko was allowed this year to ask his grandparents for a Nintendo DS.  I knew they would buy it, and was excited for him.  He also let me know that all of his friends at school have had one since they were 4.  Are you freaking kidding me??
Dimitri got a star wars lego guy alarm clock as his birthday present.  I guess im a shitty parent becasue i only spent $40 on my six year old instead of $300 like our neighbor...  Personally i think 40 bucks is an insane price for a clock thats not from Pottery Barn, but aparently about 4 of his friends got a similar one just for the hell of it years ago. There goes all my thunder:(

I just want some friends for my kids that arent spoiled, and dont have EVERYTHING given to them.
THose kind of kids would be a joy to have for a playdate.  Then, maybe, if say, they break my son's brand new remote control car, that was one of THREE presents he got for Christmas from us that year, they would actually feel bad about it.

are they out there??!!








*I will add to this post that they ARE out there, and they happen to life one cul-de-sac away:)  Thank you God for sending my kids a friend for each kid, of the same age and gender, who are sweet and calm, and have Christian parents :)  What an answer to prayer!
