to Melanie B. from Sunshine S.



She likes clean sheets and freshly shaven legs- thus a new razor and shave gel.


She doesn’t sleep well and likes to read cook books when she can’t sleep- so...the "Fix it and Forget it" (Only five ingredients for each recipe since she will be having a baby in just a month or so)



The only home made part of my gift is the "family jar". She expressed her love
for President Hinckley, her desire to read her scriptures more and her love for
her children and want for being more patient. Seeing as she will just have had
a baby....I took the jar...decorated it with "family" and put two months worth
of quotes and scriptures from President Hinckley, his sweet wife Marjorie Pay
Hinckley and other great leaders...the idea was, while she will be spending
much time with her new little one, she can grab a quick scripture, thought,
"mommy motivation" each day for a couple months
