Donor gift

Yesterday we ordered our donor a gift. We had thought about the usual flowers, or spa gift certificate, but in the end we decided on something more permanent. Deciding upon a gift was not easy. We wanted it to some way connect the donor to the child. We thought about the child and when he/she would be born. It will be in the month of March and the March birthstone is aquamarine. We thought too of the history of the gem and in the end wrote the following card for the donor.

Aquamarine represents the ocean of love that will surround this child when entering the world in March, and the love that surrounds you today.

It will be enclosed with a pair of Aquamarine stud earrings.
