[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 86322, member: 84"] It doesn't sound like they're ready for anything of the keepsake variety. I have to agree with the person who figured it would probably wind up in a pawn shop. If you do decide on a keepsake, keep it with you until difficult child is in a stable environment and can appreciate the gift. I buy my grandkids each one keepsake ornament a year. This doesn't mean it has to be expensive. Sometimes they're pretty cheap, depends on the ornament and what it means to them/me when I'm buying it. So far, Aubrey's are stored with my xmas decor since Nichole is still living at home. easy child has Darrin's at his house. When easy child decorates her tree Darrin will place his ornaments on it himself. When we decorate ours, Aubrey will do the same. (with grown up help) That's a big tradition around here. easy child is 23 and just now got to have her own keepsake ornaments from when she was a child for her own tree. lol I waited til I was sure her and sister in law were stable and owned their own home.
