But, everyone has their own ways of expressing their happiness/guilt/whatever to each other. Personally, no need for that sort of thing for me. :)<br />White Ravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10783400970658574518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4235771782023358871.post-72183607803862416392012-10-17T09:54:31.545-04:002012-10-17T09:54:31.545-04:00I definitely get push presents.

My daughter is certainly the best gift life can give, and I don't feel like I missed anything not having a "push present". It never even crossed my mind, actually. The best gift I got at that time was my from my parents. The brought flowers and food to my house the day I came home. That's my kind of push present - not having to cook.Dandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16704034723999796064noreply@blogger.com
