About 2 weeks ago, I sent a homemade wreath that I especially made for my step daughter to her. I know she has had to got it. It's only 3 hrs away. She has never acknowledged that that she has recieved it (like or not). My mom taught us at an early age to say thank you, even if it is for a piece of gum. I raised my daughter the same way and I know Bruce's children were raised that way. Should I call her and make sure she recieved it or wait?

Yes you could call her and say you just wanted to make sure she received the gift you sent! I think it is rude no to call or send a Thank You card!! Whenever I get anyhing from my parents in the mail (or anyne) I always call them and thank them, then I also send a Thank You card through the mail. I think since someone was kind enough to get or make me something the lease I can do is send a thanks and call them!

I can tell your feelings are hurt. And I believe that I would feel the same way. People are busy these days, maybe she hasn't had a chance to call? I think I wouldn't be sending gifts her way if there was never an acknowlegement of the gift. I haven't always, due to time?, sent thank you notes. Usually, though, I thank gift givers personally.
