Utterly trivial AIBU, I am not seeting or cross, or even mildly annoyed. More, I am wondering if I should be wondering this or have forgotten about altogether.
A good friend had a joint birthday party for her DC recently. Their birthdays are about 4 weeks apart and I asked her if they'd prefer their gifts at the parties or on their birthdays. She said their birthdays so that's what I did.
The second DC (the DD) had her birthday about 3 weeks after the party. Straight after the party I was given a card that said "thanks for coming to our party, DS loves his present and I know DD will love hers too".
All well and good really, nothing to complain about there.
BUT - I gave the DD her present a few days before her birthday and I have heard nothing from her parents about it since. I know small children get lots of presents blah blah blah but I've seen the Mum quite a few times since and had absolutely no mention whatsoever of the gift, no acknowledgement of it whatsoever. Apart from the mention of it before it was given.
I'm not expecting gushing praise or whatever just a text "thanks for the gift, DD loved it".
Now I'm left wondering if they've even opened it.
OK, I read that back, I think I'm probably BU!

AIBU?
Would this irk you just slightly? Or not bother you in the least?
