Received a 'thank you' text from #GS2 for his (delayed) birthday card + $25 visa gift card.

Not sure whether my daughter-in-law has talked with her oldest ( #GS1 ) yet to inform him that _his_ birthday card + gift card came to her.

He's the dutiful one, so I was concerned that sending a gift card directly to him would lead to "we need your $25 to help with the bills".

I know #GS2 is going to spend his birthday money on himself (as he should) and no amount of pressure would change that.
