Birthday Gift 2008

I got this gift from my parents. It is made of Ivory. I think it is very nicely carved.
I also think my dad is buying stuff for himself !!!
I know that mum thinks very little of ivory and does not like it when my dad buys them for himself. It is a waste of money in her opinion.
However, she won't protest one bit if the ivory was purchased for me.
Nevertheless, I like it. I think it is a nice piece of art.
I wonder if this would continue? I got one piece each year for 3 years now.
Gee... I wonder what I would be getting in 2009?
