Gifts and Presents - What does it Mean

My boys remind me all the time that when we need to get a gift for someone we must put effort in the gift ... it may not be an expensive gift, ...but it is very important to put our heart and thought to the gift...because that person is in our lives... they mean something

Its sometimes hard to buy a gift ...what do we get them?...my suggestion tends to be  money ... my practical explanation is that they then can get anything they want or need

But my boys think that is not thoughful ....gift cards has been a compromise  ...but not for my older one...he would take the time to get the right gift within the budget he sets 

Receiving a gift can be very meaningful ...

I still  use the dinner set presented to me for my wedding more than 20 years ago...

Gifts are about telling someone that they mean something to us and are important to us

Thank you for all the gifts that I have received over the years.
