The best gift i gave along with my brother and sister was to my mom. It was a mothers ring with all 3 birth stones on it, she started to cry and was very happy to recieve it from us. It was fun to watch her open it, we put it in multible boxes one bigger than the other.
Son, if you really want something in this life, you have to work for it. Now quiet! They're about to announce the lottery numbers

I would have to say that the best gift I have given is a two part story First of all I gave a small leather key chain that I had made in church camp for my father when i was 7yrs old. Sadly it was returned to me a few years back when my daddy passed away. However, I had grown so close to my daughters Shriner. Papa D, as the kids call him, and for years (even before my daddys death) he has become like a second father to me. So last year I once again wrapped the little leather key chain up and gave to him. He knew immediately upon opening it what it was and the significance of it. He cried and I cried.

The best gift that I will give is to my mother. She doesn't know it yet, but I'm going to try to go to Indy to visit her around the holidays. We haven't seen each other in almost 2 years. We couldn't really see each other at all due to our schedules, long distance, and the FORMER high gas prices. My mother always said the greatest gift that she could ever have it to see her children again, and I want to make that happen.

Well the best give I have ever given issssss...since my mom is a die hard gambler (wonder where I got my pasttime from) but she knows when to stop..anyhoooo..every christmas myself and my 3 sisters and 4 brothers give her money..and every christmas she gets excited because she knows what she's getting..her present lasts about 4 trips to the city so she can spend all her time in the casino..she is 72 but she is like a kid in a candy store...we always try to trick her and put the money in a present of some sort..last year i bought her a teapot and cups..inside the teapot i put teabags..but emptied the teabags and folded the bills so small and tucked them in the teabags, she didn't even realize it...the look on her face is more special than receiving any gift I truly wanted.
Thanks NLN !!!

Hi ,
All I have had the best gift of all, many times over. I have a wonderful husband, and wonderful children, I have a wonder life. No compalints here, there are always ups and downs in life. I recently have been diagnoised with cervical dystonia. It is a rare diease, where the brain does not send the right transmitter signals to different parts of the body. I suffer from this desease with my neck. It turns to the left, all day/night 24/7. It is very painful. I recently have had botox injections into the my mucles in the right side of my neck. And injections in the base of the left side of my neck. (Extremely Extremely painful). The botox is to help the pain, but does not always stop the turning of the neck or body parts. But I have notice less pain since the injections. I am suppose to get these injections every 3-6. So I would like to donate to that fund.

The best gift was when I bought my mom a diamnd ring one year. I wrapped it in many boxes from large going to the small one. She was so excited when she actually got to the ring and seen it, she just cried and cried....that is a wonderful memory.
