Birthday sex or not

Been married three years now and today my husband came home and told me he spent all his wages and can't buy me nothing for my birthday. I know it shouldn't matter but this is the only time in the year I can get treated. I have a son and all my time and money comes on as and the house. I feel bad to tell him.I'm upset but his really hurt my feeling. He never puts no thought into anything. His a fantastic man and I wouldn't change him for the world but I still need to feel appreciated. How can.I tell him I'm upset with out getting him upset!
