My godmother and her husband have always sent me gifts for Christmas, birthdays, my wedding, etc. However, last year, they couldn't afford to send anyone gifts, so they didn't. I still sent them something though, because like I said, she is my godmother and has always treated me well.
Anyway, I am under the impression that they are not doing gifts again this year. Obviously, I don't mind sending one at all. However, is it awkward if I do?
I NEVER know what to do in this situations. I want to be respectful and send a gift for all that she has done for me in the past, but at the same time, I don't want to put her in an awkward spot.
Anyone notice that I wait until the last minute for Christmas shopping? Every year.

Re: another awkward christmas gift question
send something small. and send it to the household (not just her)...maybe even flowers for the house or an edible arrangement
something small but nice
i feel you on this. my godmother ALWAYS sends us cards/gifts. and only until recently have i been sending her things and not just adding my name to my mom's cards/gifts. i dont mind

Re: another awkward christmas gift question
So I think a small 'token' gift would be appropriate...I'm gonna go with ornament again! Something thoughtful but nothing too pricey....more of an 'i'm thinking of you this time of year' gift....
and PS - This is SO not last minute girlfriend....you're good to go!
