[quote=Anonymous]Oh man… I received alphabet blocks for our LO in my native language from SIL. They’re made by an American company and I first saw them online two years ago, but immediately noticed in the product photos that there were mistakes on some of the blocks, and more ridiculously, fully 1/3 of the alphabet was missing. I actually wrote to the company back then to let them know but never received a response. Since no one in DH’s family has any familiarity with my language, everyone raved about what an amazing and thoughtful gift it was, but sadly they’re unusable to me. Imagine if you received an ABC alphabet block set for your DC with only 17 blocks and some misshapen letters! I thanked her enthusiastically of course but I have to admit the whole thing was triggering some depressing 90’s childhood flashbacks that I won’t get into here. At any rate I know she tried to do something tailored and special, and I wouldn’t want her feelings to be hurt, so I guess there’s not much more to say on the matter—[/quote]
