Ideas for unique gifts?

I'm going to a party in a few weeks to celebrate my friends bringing home their daughter from Russia.

I was wondering if any of you had some really good ideas about unique or personalized gifts.

They are asking for donations to the orphanage but since her and I have gone through IF together I'd like to get her and/or her daughter just something more

Thanks!

How about a traditional Russian toy or keepsake-nesting dolls are all I can think of but I'm sure you can google it

They have some really nice frames and albums, etc... that say something to the effect that "You were grown in my heart". I'm sorry- I can't think of it- but my DH is adopted and his mom and I were talking about this- I came across some of them online. HTH.Chat Icon

I thought this was very pretty to put in a card:
She is the child of your hearts,
this little girl you have waited for,
this amazing, tiny blessing
you have chosen out of love.
And she has made your dreams come true
simply because she is your daughter.
Wishing you a lifetime of love and joy together.
Congratulations!
