I am the youngest of four. My parents are absolutely amazing and have worked so hard so that we could have a good life. Now that I am about to graduate high school, I want to do something to show them how much I appreciate everything that they have done; especially because I am their last child. I wrote a tribute to them that I want to print and perhaps get a frame for. But I was also thinking of doing something else… Maybe something that included something from all of our lives. I was thinking perhaps some sort of photo gift or really anything, but am running out of time and need help coming up with ideas. What would be something that would be really special?
Honestly, graduating and going on to the next phase of your life (college, armed forces, working) is the best thing you can do.
But if you want a physical gift…how about a photo book (e.g., you could use shutterfly or the like) with your parents and you at various significant events over your life? You could include what you wrote in that
I think the kind, grateful, thoughtful works that you took the time and effort to write will be most meaningful to them. If you add a physical gift I like the idea of a photo book or framed family photo.
Agree that the most important gift is that you (and hopefully your siblings as well) are moving forward with your life in a positive way.
