Two years ago our son was placed with us and his bmom gave us a couple of outfits and some booties. I have put these in a keepsake box along with other things she has given us that he has grown out of or is no longer using. Well, today I got a letter from his bmom and she mentioned she is expecting again and wants me send back the clothes she gave him so she can use them for this new child (she doesn't know the sex yet). I don't want to hurt her feelings but I would really like to keep these items for my son to have. I have thought of offering to buy her items that are similar to these and give them to her as a gift or something along this line. Am I out of line in not wanting to part with these items or does anyone have a suggestion of the best way to handle this?

Thanks,
Cherie
