| I want to get a thank you gift for my mum and nana. basically while I studied and got my teaching diploma (which i graduate with in May), they babysat, picked up, dropped off, organised etc, and I want to say thanks. So any ideas what I could get? I was thinking about the massey grad bear - then saw it is $45 each, which i don't mind spending, just not on a stuffed toy |

I think that the grad bear is a great idea - mostly because it's special. They've helped you to become that bear as such 
The grad photo idea is a good one too!! ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |
