[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it seems like it isn't only your mother's lackluster response to the gift, but her timing that's an issue. I get that. My MIL has a gift for calling at the worst times and then doesn't understand why we don't answer her calls. For your own sanity, don't take calls when things are crazy at home. Let whoever it is leave a message and call them back when it's good for you. FWIW, I think your mother was rude. Even if she didn't like the gift as much as last year's, she could still thank you for thinking of her. Next year, save yourself the effort and send her a gift card. :) [/quote] But if the mother was nice, she'd keep getting the photo album every year forever. I think with close family members you can show preference. I wouldn't want a photo album or photo calendar. It's much better to see the pics on a shared photo album on an ipad instead. [/quote]
