I even start thinking about what to give a month or two before the day I have to hand over the gift. But now I know that the best policy is to stay practical and not obsess with gift wrapping. What do you think the best gift is? Have you ever received a gift that impressed you? Leave a comment to let us know, and don't forget to record today's sentence. I'll see you next time.
