you know what gifts can do in our life?
First, gifts can make us happy. We get gifts from our family or friends, and they all show us their love.
Second, getting gifts can make us think of special or important days in our life, like birthdays or other special festivals.
Third, gifts can also let us learn to be grateful（感激的）. When we get gifts, we know others' love and then show our thanks to them.
In a word, gifts are important in our life. As people often say, “Sending goose feathers from thousands of miles, with light gifts and heavy affection.” Never think about whether（是否）a gift is big or small. We just need to know gifts can make us happy, make us think of special days, and teach us to be grateful.
