I always try to have something special set by each of their plates for the dinner. My mom would do this for us. One year she gave us each a small frame with someone special that we loved (relative, teacher, friend) I did this one year too, which was fun because each of my kids are close with different relatives.
Another year I did the classic stuffed animal for each of them to snuggle and love on. That was the year Nathan got the frog which is now officially Jerrica's.
Other years have been a special letter to them.
However, I am VERY excited about this year's gift. It's something that they were going to get anyway, and they are going to be thrilled with it. I know it will be a treasure for many years to come.
ANYWAY, here is my little invitation that I'm going to give each of my kiddos.
I could actually use some chocolate strawberries right NOW!
...and another great idea! somehow the double dipping hasn't outgrown my children so fondue isn't a regular around here. i'm making chicken cordon bleau...they better love it :)
