Needs first instead of having a birthday party

Birthdays are important but for me buying the needs of my daughter and son is more practical than preparing for their birthday party.
Three months to go and my daughter will turn 15 and my son will turn 2. They are both June babies. Zeyn Ashley will turn 15 this coming June 13 and Elijah Ziel will turn 2 this coming June 25. Last year I save and prepare for their birthday celebration. We celebrated Ashley's birthday at the Thirst tea Shop just in our town. Since my daughter loves milk tea I just go with her plan. We didn't prepare a birthday celebration for Ashley because our plan was to have a double celebration. We celebrated her birthday on Elijah Ziel's birthday. It was honestly my first time to put so much effort into a birthday celebration. When I only had Ashley before, we usually celebrated her birthday in the city, first we visit the church before buying her needs like shoes, clothes, etc. We just usually eat at Jollibee (Ashley's favorite). I don't also celebrate my birthday. It's a day after Christmas not everyone will remember it. I just go shopping and eat outside with my Daughter. That's how we usually celebrate our birthdays.
However, when I got married everything was changed. Hubby's family is used to gatherings like birthday celebrations. I am not against it since that's what they want. But for me, I better buy the needs of my 2 kids than prepare a birthday party for them. I only earn $3 a day from my job. It is not enough for our daily needs and I am just the one who works for our family. My husband won't have a regular job. I need to find extra income online to survive for our daily needs. I don't care if my husband's family will call me thrifty if I choose not to have a birthday party for my kids besides I will be the one to spend money if ever I will prepare a birthday for my kids.
I already have the stuff for my kids on my Shopee cart. I will slowly buy them. I need to buy clothes for my son. Kids grow so fast and his clothes get smaller. I need to buy him shoes because he never has shoes for going out. He only uses the used shoes from his cousin. I am also planning to stay one night at the nearest resort in our place. That is what my daughter wants. I think treating her on her special day will make her happy. I wanted to reward her also for being a good ate to her brother, for taking care of her younger brother while I am at work. It is not an easy job for her to take care of her younger but I never heard her complaining. She understands that I needed to work for them.
Ending thoughts
I think I still have enough time to save and buy their needs. moreover, I'm sure they will be happy if I will buy the things they need.
