A Story of Generosity

[kristi]

I just received a call from my coworker's wife. Here is a little background. They had triplets about 2 years ago (2 boys & 1 girl). Well, they found out that she is pregnant again (Oops!) with baby #4 due the beginning of November. She found out a week ago that they are going to have another boy so she is bagging up all her daughters clothes and giving them to me. Quite a few of them have never been worn before due to family and friends bombarding her with tons of clothes. Too many clothes not enough time. I can't believe how generous that is of them. I've offered to give her/them some money for the clothes, but she and he both are too nice to accept my offer. Can someone give me some ideas on what to give them? I've thought about maybe a couple of dinner gift certificates so they can get out of the house on a date without any kids, but I would also like to do something special as well. Thanks in advance for any ideas you can share with me.

I guess I'll be holding off on buying girl stuff for a while longer.

That is awefully nice of her! And very thoughtful!
How about a facial/manicure/pedicure certificate from a spa? I think that would be great, especially since she is preggars. Very relaxing! Also, along with that, mail a thank you note. I love to get stuff in the mail that isn't junk! she probably will, too!
