An Unconventional Baby Gift
When I found out that my baby sister was expecting, I was overjoyed. I knew that she would make a great mother and I was flattered that she thought enough of me to ask for advice on the pregnancy. She was young and she was scared and I think the whole experience brought us a lot closer together.
I wanted to give her a baby shower, as I knew that there were several things that her and her husband would not be able to afford for the baby. That being said, I knew this baby would never lack for love as they both had so much to offer.
I wanted to find her the best baby gift and I started thinking back to when I had my first baby. I tried to remember what the one thing was that I could not have survived without. The decision that I came to was, maybe not the most conventional one, but I got her a spa membership, good for a pedicure, a facial and a massage once a month for a year. I felt the best thing I could give her was the chance to relax and forget her responsibilities, even for just a couple of hours.
