<p>IMO a gift from the heart is far more meaningful than an expensive material gift. The wife of my son's wrestling coach had each graduating wrestler give a gift to their parent(s) at the Awards Banquet. She had the wrestler hand write a thank you note to their parent(s) on semi-transparent vellum paper. She then placed the vellum paper on top of their photo (action shot) before matting and framing the gift. My son's letter read as follows: </p>
<p>Dear Mom and Dad,
Thank you so much for being there for me. You guys put up with everything I did. Mom, thanks for all those great meals, but a guy can only go so long on boneless skinless chicken breast. Dad, thanks for coming to all of my matches even when I didn't stand a chance. You guys have always been encouraging and supportive, thanks. Love XXXX</p>
<p>If you have a scrapbooking supply store in your area, ask if they have a free lance designer that could design and construct special scrapbooks for both your parents and grandparents.</p>
