Fun stuff! I have been searching for the perfect initiation gift for my daughter.

She's not really into "stuff." Her dorm is a very carefully curated collection of only the things that bring her the greatest joy. She likes simplicity as she says it allows one to "breathe." Let's just say big/little week will be very interesting.

So, knowing that, I have had a hard time searching for the perfect gift. Due to her lack of concern about "stuff" she tends to misplace/lose/give away things all the time. We are not mentioning a certain situation regarding a pair of diamond studs which were loaned to a friend...and forgotten about until packing for college and discovering the friend had no idea what happened to them...or the search for birks that may have been left at so and so's house, or even the phone which had been left countless places. Hence, she IS NOT getting my badge--at least until tile makes an itty bitty tracking device to put on it..

What she does value are people and experiences. She would rather cook a meal together or take a trip than to have something physical. That is the path I am going down--figuring out something perfect to commemorate her initiation.

I did send her a bid day package with a shirt, water bottle and smoothie cup to round out her bid day gifts from her chapter--hat, blanket, shirts, cups, stickers and some other things that she couldn't remember--because unlike my daughter, I really do love stuff. So, the search continues for the perfect way to commemorate initiation...
