Feeling guilty

So I just sorted out all the presents from myself (DM) and of course Santa and I feel so guilty because this year was a hard one financially and I couldn't afford many presents for my DDs. The older 2 who are 17 & 12 understand but my 8 year old (asd) is the one Im worried about. I'm lucky in the fact my DDs are not in anyways greedy or ungrateful but the mom guilt is strong tonight Sad anyone else in the same boat or am I over thinking it? I know there's worse problems going on in the world but I just want them to be happy

Well was your worry well founded? Theres a lot of pressure on parents this time of year, so if you are providing s loving home and emotional love, and you got her a present well we have to remember that's good enough.. and sure last years loom band maker in our house is banished under the stairs.. I cracked a glass over the Christmas dinner today🙄

I was worried for nothing! Had a really good day in the end. How did yours turn out after the glass incident 😂
