As a mom, my weakest spot was indeed my child. I can literally do everything just to make him happy, well actually not specifically everything, as my kindness has a limitation as well. I don't wanna raised my son as a spoiled brat😅.

Anyway,( if you could still remember) the last time that I bring my son to the city to have some fun, he found a big toy car inside the department store where we went to. However we didn't buy the toy for him as it's price is too pricey for us. Luckily he isn't the kind of toddler who gets tantrums when he didn't gets what he want, he just feel sad for a minute then his fine again.

So basically we really don't have any plan to buy him a toy again as he already have some. However, last week when I bring my son to have a walk just inside the village, we came across to a toy store and again he saw a big toy car inside. Upon seeing the toy he immediately run inside the store. I actually got surprise as I didn't expect him to run.

So when he went inside the store, he excitedly yelled. Wow! Wow! Then he immediately pick up the toy. Lol. 😅 I smiled with his reaction as he really loves to have a big toy car. He even wanted me to open the box as he really wanted to play it.

As usual, I immediately check the price. You know? I don't have money and so the tag price really matters 😂.

Unfortunately the toy is too pricey, as the tag price say's that the toy was worth 500.00 pesos ($10). 🙈🤦 Gosshhh, why so expensive? So I calmly talk to my son, I explain to him that we can't open the box because the toy isn't ours. I told him that we will wait for his papa so we can ask money and buy the toy. Then we went out side the store. I honestly feel guilty. He really wants to have a big toy, but I can't bought it for him.

So when his papa came home after his work I told him about the toy, then he told me to buy it, when he received his salary so our son will be happy.

I remember that Shopee (online shopping app) will be having their salary sale on July 15, so I immediately open the app.

Then from there I found a lot of toy's😜, and some of the toy's are little bit more cheaper than we saw inside the department store. However some of the reviews are not so convincing.

Costumer's reviews are really important to me when buying online, to avoid disappointments and I also don't wanna waste my money for a broken item, so I always read. But I wouldn't say that some reviews are helpful. Honestly some of the reviews are deceiving 😅.

While I keep browsing the app I finally found the one charot, so I added it into my cart and waited for July 15 to check it out. You know, discount and free shipping voucher is life. Lol.

I was so excited for the toy as I know my son would be happy to see his new toy

So we waited for four days, until yesterday when I checked my shopee app I have seen the status of my parcel was already out for delivery.

Oh noh, wala pang sahod. Lol

Since my partner haven't received his salary yet, I decided to cash out some of my earnings in one of the survey app that I had in my phone. I only cash out my needed amount and leave the other amount so I can immediately reach the minimum amount again, as I don't wanna feel bored answering the survey 😝.

Luckily I have already reached the minimum payout and cashing out from this app is very fast so in just one minute I immediately received my earnings to my PayPal.

Then finally we received our parcel yesterday. The delivery rider delivered it to our home address at around 5: 40 PM .

I really thought we won't receive it yesterday as it's almost evening and yet it hasn't arrived. So when it arrives I was really excited to see my parcel. Lol. Feeling like a kid😂.

When I was about to open my parcel I immediately noticed the attached message of the seller 🥰.

"Gift for baby, please handle with care. Don't throw nor overthrow. Please deliver the toy with love and care"

They really do care about their costumer's satisfaction. No wonder all the reviews that I read about their shop is positive.

My son was still sleeping when the parcel came, and so I just wake him up with a surprise.

His reaction was priceless 🥰.

He immediately play it with his other toy and when I wanna play with him, he doesn't want me to touch his dump truck. Lol.

Literally, he was really happy with his new toy. Even when he was about to sleep last night, he was still holding it.

Don't mind the ponytail😜.

His happiness, is indeed my happiness as well.

Thanks shopee. Lol

Closing thoughts

I know that I shouldn't spoil him with toys, and so I also have my limitations. I just feel sad for him as he felt bored inside our home as he don't have any playmate's. Sometimes I also can't bring him outside for walk as the weather is unstable.

However some toy's are also have a positive purpose for their growth. It helps them to be creative and they also learn how to share and they learn how to work as a team. It is not just for fun as it also helps them to develop a new skills and passion.
