[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have with some families (my best ever was when I got marshmallow shooters for the kids, their adult half-sibs and the parents and they had an epic Christmas Day marshmallow war).  Current family I did a really sentimental gift when I started with them as babies and parents werw like, “That’s very thoughtful but not our taste,” so I will keep it small and just do stuff with the kids and a nice card for the parents.  They are just a more buttoned-up kind of family and very anti-clutter.[/quote]

Well that wasn’t nice of them, I’m sure you put thought in your gifts and it took time. Even if they didn’t like it, or it wasn’t “their taste” they should’ve been appreciative- sorry to hear that was their reaction. My families are extra- in a good way, when we make art projects for fun or for special occasions/holidays, their always like omg this is wonderful yada-yada-yada lol... so I know anything I give to them, they would be more than appreciative.

But as for you, I would just get the kid something and not the parents (if you’re still with them) just a verbal merry Xmas. [/quote]

I didn’t hold it against them because of the nature of it (framed shadow box with preemie clothes from the twins and clay handprints and photos of parents with them).  So they either had to display it or stick it in a closet, and since they didn’t really want to display it...[/quote]
