[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 393909, member: 4264"] You both have good advice to offer, thank you :) I dont' at all want to overwhelm her with "stuff". I think the idea of giving the frame to her just "because" on the day I put her on the bus home is a great one. Thanks for mentioning it, its a brilliant plan!!! I know too that she really is just looking forward to spending time here, and that is definitely the emphasis I feel too. We have some pretty set in stone family things we do through the holidays too. The movies in pjs camped out with treats at night, she asked to do some baking, we should have fun with the Kinect and rock band, plus we play a lot of board games etc during holidays. I really do think those will be the things that matter most even to her at her age. The picture frame thing is because she took a photo of me from her facebook and used her computer to merge the picture with one of her and made one of those digital frames with the words Sisters Love Forever on it. So I thought she'd enjoy having one for her in her room. I hadn't even thought of something getting "lost" under iffy circumstances. I'm not thinking it would happen but her moms boyfriend is a addict and one never knows really. So I'm going to go with the idea of the girly things like hair stuff, lip gloss, etc. I wish I knew her better to know if she likes that kind of stuff, or what colors she likes for cute gloves etc. [/QUOTE]
