You should not go overboard on presents because too much could scare or confuse a child. You should consider getting specialty items such as a plate that says First Birthday, a 1-year-old candle, and possible a table cover that everyone could sign with fabric paint to have as keepsakes that can someday be shown or given to to your grown child.

I can get more out of my headphones and the Beatles.It was this way as far back as I can remember. Early Sunday school, then later Bible studies, liturgies in another language, all culminating in a weekly teen rebellion against God and my parents. I really hated my parents especially my Mother for forcing religion on me. Besides, I dont think the Smothers Brothers forced their kids, and they are political giants!I would brood the entire hours drive to church just to make my parents as miserable as I felt. It never changed in all those years.
