Holiday Gifts (Valentine's, Halloween, etc.)?

Ever since I was little, my godmother has sent my sisters and I cards and small gifts throughout the year for various holidays. Valentine's, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, Halloween, etc. Is this something that anyone else's family does? I was thinking of starting it up for our niece because I always enjoyed it so much and I was just wondering if I was the only one.

I think it's a great idea. My mom would buy little things for my brother and I when we were little. I think it would be fun to do that for a niece or nephew.

My great aunts did, and it made me feel connected to them even though I rarely saw them. The ones that are left have now sent things to Michael and I think that is so sweet!

My grandmother used to do that for my brother and I. I try to do it for my cousin's kids, but it's getting harder! #8 is on the way, and I'm sure another of my cousins will be trying for a baby soon. I'm going to end up broke! haha. But I think it's a sweet idea.

My aunt still sends me a card for almost every holiday. I think it is a great idea.

Yay! I'm glad to hear that other families do this. Luckily we only have the one niece right now so it will be easy to keep up with.

My aunt and one of my cousins do it for Braden, I think it's really sweet
