Ok, so what do you sacrifice for your family? It doesn't have to be anything deep.

My example is: the last Oreo of a package always goes to my daughter unless my husband sees it first. :dizzy
 
My chips. Without fail, if I open chips my family finds a way to finish them without me. :confused:
 
Our cheetos is that way too. At the end I changed to vinegar and salt chips because nobody else likes them. LOL!!!
 
My gym schedule. I have switched my classes and times to accommodate my daughter who wants to go with me so we work around her schedule. I don't mind though. I'm happy to have introduced her to it and she loves it. She now looks toned and buff. She's so proud of herself and so am I.
 
Rae, that is awesome! I found Bianca using my yoga band this morning to stretch in our bed. LOL!!!
 
My personal space.

I have a very strict pretend-there-is-a-hula-hoop-around-me imposed rule for everyone. My Mom loved to tell the story about how I was born anti-snuggle. But I'm not like that with my kids. Or pets. I gave birth to two velcro babies. From birth they wanted to be held all the time and as they got older they had to have some part of them touching me when we sat together. As I type this my 7 year old is smooshed up against me. It's hot here today too and she runs hot lol. I have learned to love it. I'm trying so hard to not pass my "eeww don't touch me" onto them and it looks like I have succeeded thus far. My daughter is a snuggle bug with everyone. My son, who is 17, still likes to sit close to us and will willingly sit with his sister and baby cousins.

But my love of it only applies to my kids, all small babies or children that are related to me. Or animals. I think those are the exceptions lol.
 
Amy, I love the velcro baby label. LOL!!! I have a velcro girl too. LOL!!!!

Hubby thought that would work - now they all LOVE salt & vinegar chips, esp. Pringles!

There is no winning with them. I have to say that hubby is enjoying the salt and vinegar with a tuna salad sandwich.
 
new clothes, shoes etc. My toddler dresses better than I do. Luckily, I'm gentle on my clothes.

I know... this is true in our house too. I finally got a pair of KEEN sandals I have wanted like forever... Bianca has had 2 already. LOL!!!
 
I eat the crust. yep on the pizza, they get the gooey yummy parts and I eat the crust. I'm a martyr for them. But I do hide the good chocolate.
I live thru my teen girls feet, I buy them high heels in sparkly colors, cause I can't wear them anymore, but still love to buy them, it is a sacrifice...bhwhahah
