My dd recently graduated from 8th grade and also received her Confirmation. My sister has a daughter the same age and going through the same things; Confirmation/graduation. We consistently exchange cards with monetary gifts. I sent her daughter money for both her Confirmation and graduation. My sister gave my dd a card and money for Confirmation, but just a card for graduation. I truly think that she just overlooked the gift part, but I don't even know if this should be brought to her attention, or just forget it. We absolutely do not expect gifts like this, but I truly believe that she thought she included it.

How to handle?

How about having your DD send her a thank you for thinking of her with the card?

Yeah - I go with thanking for the card and for thinking of her. If your sister receives the thank you and sees that she isn't being thanked for $$ (if she, in fact, intended to include some), then she'll realize it. If she intentionally didn't include $$, she will find the thank you appropriate, anyway.

I'd have my daughter write a note thanking her for the well wishes card. If your sister meant to give a gift card then she'll know it wasn't received. If she didn't send a gift card then your daughter has thanked her for thinking of her.
