I got an invite to my cousin's daughter's confirmation (in the Catholic faith), for Mother's Day and I'm a bit clueless on what to give her. She's 16 years old. Aside from money or a gift card, any other ideas you can enlighten me with?

I was thinking of giving her a gift certificate to be Tate and Finn's babysitter for a whole week but then I thought I'd miss them way too much! ;)

A gift cert. is probably the best idea and would be the most useful to a 16 year old.

All honesty, the standard gift for Confirmation is $$$$

You could even do something like a visa/amex gift card that way she can use it wherever she wants

yeah, i had a feeling it is! You sound like you're talking from experience, Christine :yes:. However, I'm going to cut down the $$$$ to perhaps $$! :laugh:
that makes my life much easier...no need to go shopping for something then!

Money or a gift certificate is always welcome, but a gold chain and cross is also a nice gift.

I was thinking some kind of jewellery earrings or something but I guess the gift card is the best option then they get what they like not what we like.
