I've been very generous to my kids and they've come to take it for granted, but now I'm retiring and my funds will be more limited and they are just going to have to deal with it! And they do at least partially understand my need to quilt and do other crafts, because I've been doing some sort of craft (not necessarily quilting) all their lives.
