What the heck do I get for Sam? Sam is my cousin. Sam's mom and I grew up as sister's (our families shared a summer home), and we've grown to be more than just cousins. We're the best of friends. So buying for Sam has to be like buying for my own son Ben. Sam called me the other day to ask what he should get for his mom.
