Importance of Baby Gifts
There is a whole world of baby gifts, and a whole world of reasons to give them.
The birth of a baby is just about the most wondrous thing that occurs in anyone’s life. It doesn’t matter whether the baby is your son or daughter, your niece or nephew, your cousin, or your granddaughter or grandson. A new baby in the family is truly a gift, a gift of love and affection that will endure for the rest of your life.
Babies also having a charming effect on the lives of neighbors, family friends and others. Watching a baby grow, and learn to walk and talk, is one of the most magical things that anyone, related or not, can experience.
Why baby gifts are important:
1. Of course you want to shower the baby in your life with affection.
There are all sorts of occasions for giving a baby gift. From new arrivals to baby baptisms and christenings, from baby birthdays to celebrating a baby’s first steps. Baby gifts can be given at a baby shower before the baby even arrives.
And baby gifts are particularly special when they are given for no occasion at all.
Whether you’re a new parent, a favorite aunt or grandmother, a doting uncle. a next door neighbor or “just a friend,” baby gifts are a great way to tangibly demonstrate your love and affection for the baby.
2. Baby Gifts can be educational.
Baby gifts can help a baby learn about the world, but unlike some lessons, baby gifts educate in an entertaining way. Certain types of toys, like foam spelling blocks, baby books, and puzzles with large, soft pieces can all teach babies how to relate to their surroundings. Mobiles hung above a baby’s crib help the baby learn how to visually
focus and build attention span. Baby spoons assist a baby in learning how to eat with utensils like a “grown-up.” And soft, cuddly plush toys and dolls help a baby learn how to show affection and attachment to others.
3. Baby gifts can assist the baby’s parents.
A baby shower is a traditional event that is held some period of time before the baby’s arrival. Typical baby gifts that are given at baby showers include baby blankets, diaper bags, lotions and powders, carryalls and totes, sweaters, hats, onesies, layette sets, socks, and baby booties and shoes. All of these types of baby gifts help the prospective parents get ready for their baby’s arrival and to be prepared for bringing their baby home from the hospital after its birth.
4. Baby Gifts can commemorate a special day in a baby’s life and can become cherished family heirlooms.
A keepsake baby birthday gift such as a bangle or bracelet set with the baby’s birthstone, a beautiful music box that will delight the baby for years to come, or a photo album filled with pictures of the baby, can all become treasured possessions. The same is true for baby christening or baptismal gifts such as a child’s first Bible, a christening gown or a baby’s first tiny cross or rosary. These types of baby gifts are cherished family mementos, often kept for dozens of years, and sometimes passed down from mother to daughter or from father to son.
There are baby gifts that would be perfect for any occasion. Baby gifts can be educational or they can be soft and snuggly toys. Baby gifts can be purely practical – such as baby clothing – or they can be beautiful and decorative, such as an embroidered baby blanket. They can be heirlooms that are passed down from generation to generation, or they can become “hand-me-downs” that are lovingly passed from an
older child to a younger child. But whatever baby gifts you give, you can be sure that they’ll be loved by all they touch.

Hospitals not only don't provide enough if any information about this, the fact that there can be a financial cost involved (for testing) deters many people who would otherwise consider it.
We did it with our last. (born 8 months ago)
We lost our first; she had leukemia and just before she was to begin pre-transplant radiation and chemo she developed a fungal infection and never made it to transplant. (her birthday, by the way, was May 18.) I wish no child had to go through these illnesses and treatments, but as long as they do I wish there was more public awareness of how people can help.
Congratulations on your success
Make a scrapbook for her where all she has to do is is put the pictures in it. I did this for my cousin. The scrapbook is basically all made except for the pictures. You can include pages for special occasions like the babys blessing, first tooth, etc.
A lot of scrapbooking stores will have LDS specific cutouts to use, too.
People love scrapbooks but a lot of them dont have the time, energy or creativity to do them. This way all they have to do is take a picture and paste it in.
super cute idea. thanks!!!
It has already been published, right here on this very web page for us to see. If you plan to re-publish it, may I suggest better formatting?
It's not necessarily tacky, but rude mostly. Most people just assume things and they shouldn't. Next time you see her, just politely decline the offer to exchange gifts and tell her you have a baby to provide for.
Very creative, Thanks…..I just made a diaper cake and this will be ab=n awesome addition. Thanks Again
I love your poem! Hmmm im thinking of a poem that similiar but i cant find one.! hmm but search on google, ask and yahoo!
Juss type in "poems that tell a story" and then you will find some searches that complete your task.
wow. Looks like you had allot of thought to this. My thoughts to this. People have been drinking milk for positively centuries and millenia. If you like it, drink it. If you don't, don't.
Very simple and practical way to decorate! I am making a diaper cake and you just gave me an awesome idea! Thanks!
So cute and they will be added to a diper cake SO SO SO CUTE thank you
Elvis is dead. Autopsy performed. Death certificate issued. A conspiracy of the magnitude described in the article would require the cooperation of an extraordinary number of people. It defies all reasonable logic to state otherwise.

what a wonderful idea
Warning: It's unfortunate that you're self-conscious, because I tend to be blunt in my reviews. Just remember that I'm only pointing out your mistakes for your own benefit. You have to learn from these things. I'll give you your praises after I give you your corrections.
-First sentence: the word "recognizable" would work better than "distinguishable"
-You're repeating the word "smile" too often
-" “Me neither… Only when I have to…” he offered as he lifted a hand to his own necklace and examined it carefully. “That was four years ago…” "
There's no need to use ellipses. Just make them periods. Also, "he offered"; wrong word choice, I think. He's not offering anything before or during his dialogue. Finally, the pendant was under his shirt, so he'd have to pull it out before he could examine it.
-"I was assaulted with memories…" Assaulted has a negative connotation, the pendant is a symbol of strength and protection, as well as the implied meanings of trust and friendship. Unless you had a specific reason for using that word, I suggest choosing a nicer one.
-I'm not convinced that your use if italics is warranted. I know that it's not necessary, since you can just change the verb tense instead, but I'm not sure if it's actually considered wrong or not.
-"It was the best gift I'd ever gotten"
Gotten = received.
Your grasp of the language is very good, and I think you have the beginnings of a good story here. Most of the things I corrected above were very small issues, mostly related to grammar and diction. I have nothing bad to say about your style (with the possible exception of the italics. I still see no reason for them to be there), flow, or creativity. So overall I think I'd give this a 7.5/10, or in other words it's pretty good for a young writer. Keep going with this, and don't let people's corrections/crits get you down. When people tell you that something was done wrong, or that it could be done in a better way, it's not a personal insult, just a suggestion to help you learn and grow. And grow you will, so long as you keep practicing.
