I read something online re: etiquette and they said we should give DD's godparents a gift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-557053 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:34:58 +0000 Boogs 557053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I've never heard of this until now! Usually it's just the godparents giving a nice gift, like jewelry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-557016 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:21:19 +0000 mediagirl 557016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have never received gifts as God parents and don't really expect it. We do give gifts to the child as the God parent, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-557000 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:12:29 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 557000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH did not receive a gift when he became a Catholic God father. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556995 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:10:41 +0000 Honeybee 556995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We gave my kids' godmother nice picture frames with a picture from the baptism. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556824 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 13:16:19 +0000 sotomorrow 556824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I did not give DD's godparents a gift and I did not receive one when I was a godparent for my niece. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556700 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:23:01 +0000 Foodnerd81 556700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was a godparent, my sister gave me a gift. But it was bigger than she would have normally, since I'd also taken a week off from work to babysit when she went back to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556675 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:08:18 +0000 Maysprout 556675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got her Godparents small gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556665 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:04:26 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 556665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, ok, totally re-write since I misunderstood the original question at first (and I don't know how because you wrote it very straightforwardly). Yes, it is nice to get a small token for the godparents. Whew, reading comprehension is good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/catholic-bees-with-baptized-children#post-556662 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:02:01 +0000 trusch24 556662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you get a gift for your godparents from the baptized child? Our son is getting baptized on Sunday and it just hit me that we might need to get a gift for his godmother. </p>
