Husbands ex wife, mother of his 8 year son, bought us a baby gift for our child to be born in January. How do I say thank you, when all I want to do is throw it away!

Dear Mary,

Does your husband feel this way as well? If these bitter feelings are yours alone, why not try to be graceful? You have the husband and a new baby on the way. What can it hurt to be gracious?
