Subject: I've been thinking about this, Brenda. I read this last night and let it mull, and here is what I think. For some people, all the joy of the season is in the giving. Don't deny her that joy, even if her taste is so different from your own. Clearly, her pleasure is derived from the giving-joy and not in the knowledge that she has given something that she sees that you love. I don't think you can stop her unless you are willing to risk hurting her. Let her give, then do as you wish with the gifts.

[> [> I agree, Betsy. I truly believe she loves going out and choosing things to give for gifts. As I said, I would never intentionally do anything to hurt her feelings because her heart is really in the right place. On a lighter note, our yellow lab saw the slippers she got me, and charged at them growling thinking we were introducing some foreign animal to the household. I retrieved them from him before too much dog spit got on them. -- Brenda, 20:45:43 12/28/03 Sun
