I have a question that I just started thinking about. My husband has a goddaughter who is 9 years old. But there are two girls in the family. We usually only buy a gift for the goddaughter, and I always get a sweet treat for both of them from myself. My husband says the other one has her own godparents. What do you think, should I get gifts for both or leave it as is?
He's with his grandparents right now, calling and asking when the screen will be ready. I tell him,…

Our family friend is godmother to only my daughter, but she always gives gifts to my son too.

When I visit, I bring goodies for the kids. I used to give my goddaughter nice gifts when she stayed with me (not with the other nephews), but otherwise, I bring something similar for everyone, unless it's their birthday.

From my perspective, you're all good. The main gift is for the goddaughter, and the rest are nice gestures and tokens of attention. I'd leave it as is. Otherwise, it seems like you have not one goddaughter, but two if you give gifts and sweets to everyone 🤣

I'd give a gift to both of them; it feels weird to give one a gift and not the other. I only give my goddaughter a separate little gift for her name day.

My husband is the godfather to a friend's younger daughter. There's also an older boy. When the kids were little, we bought gifts for both. How could we go to the children and say – you get a gift, and you don't? Now the boy is 14 and the girl is 9. Obviously, he doesn't need toys or sweets anymore, so we usually just get him his favorite Korean snacks.

We're not visiting, they're 1,500 km away from us. We send or order all the gifts. And that's only because I push my husband to do it.

Olesya So, the older one is the same age as my oldest, and the younger one is like a goddaughter. And I'm the one who started giving her treats. I have to nudge my husband about gifts. It's already October, and I've started thinking about gifts (I hate thinking about it in December and spending a ton of money all at once 🤣). And for some reason, every year, it bothers me that we give gifts to one but only order sweets for the other, and even then, it's me doing it, not my husband.

How are you doing?

Little gifts for both of you + my goddaughter

Unless it's their birthday or a special occasion, I'd only give them sweets or something similar. But for holidays, something substantial for the guest of honor.

They give gifts to both of us for New Year's. But the gifts aren't expensive, just some treats.
