For my daughter's 16th birthday, one of her grandmothers wanted to get her a real keepsake, and wanted my daughter to pick out a watch, from www.watchsea.com. In what I believe is a generational difference, my daughter politely said that while she really appreciated the idea, what she was really hoping for was a toe ring! Needless to say, her grandmother was bewildered, but being ever the open-minded person that she is, she decided to give a two-part gift. She let my daughter pick out a toe ring, but also explained to her that the watch was something timeless-no pun intended-which my daughter could keep and use throughout her life and even leave to her daughter some day, if she were to have one. They had a mature talk about this and my daughter came around to appreciating the beautiful gift idea that was being offered to her and said she was going to make a keepsake box to put both items in for when she's not wearing them! I was very glad that each was able to understand the other's point of view…and I'm glad my daughter understood how fortunate she is to have such a generous and understanding grandmother.
