My husband and I were asked by our daughter and son-in-law to be godparents for their first child, Vivi Anne. We pondered over the most appropriate gift to give to her, one that would carry on through the years. So we purchased a sterling silver chain and cross with a diamond in the center of the cross. The card with it reads: Dear Vivi, Accept this cross with our hope that you always keep Jesus close to your heart. It's also a keepsake to wear on your wedding day and pass on to your children. God bless you on your Baptismal day. Love, Grandma and Grandpa

I have a baptism to go to at the end of this month and I have no idea what I should get as a gift. Do I even get a gift? What is appropriate?
