[blparent] gifts

[Allie]

Is she too young to match them up and call them by name? Make the different animal noises? There's 
any number of things you can do with them.

-- Allie

A smile costs nothing but gives much.  It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who 
give.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or 
mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. 
Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value 
to anyone until it is given away.  Some people are too tired to give you a smile.  Give them one of 
yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

I thought of getting Mellie that, but it looked too young for her.
I'm thinking of getting her the Melissa And doug animal puzzle for her
birthday.

Come on over, V, Little People are great.
So, guys, what should I get Mellie for her birthday, a toy kitchen,
princess stuff or a drum set. She's not getting all three.
She's also turning two.
Bring on your ideas, and if you have other ideas, send 'em over.

I'm coming to your house, I love Little People toys.   Princess stuff is

really big here, I think Target and Walmart had an abundance right
before Christmas.  Also Toys R Us, you might have to wait until they
restock. V
