me too. One of my parents sent me a text on Thanksgiving that said "Happy Thanksgiving, We love you!" and this meant more to me than any gift she could buy me during the holidays. I think Christmas is for kids and so I don't mind if I get anything. Half of the time dh and I don't exchange gifts and that's fine with me. This bothers me almost as much as the threads that sound like we could raise people's kids better...
