[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My adult daughter (27) gave my husband and I a very extravagant gift for Mother's Day/DH's birthday (May 10). She gifted us a week in Bermuda (tix, hotel, activity). She has a pretty good job, I think makes around $70k, but it's not like she's swimming in money. She does have a student loan payment. It was a lovely sentiment, but I feel it is way too extravagant and I'm a bit overwhelmed. Would I be okay saying something like that? [/quote] Don't break her heart. You can compensate on her birthday or Christmas with cash gift.[/quote] Let her give you this lovely gift without commenting on its lavishness or trying to reimburse her with offers of future trips or gifts. Thank her like you would any other adult and rejoice that she thinks of you so highly. [/quote]
