Didn't you give her money for outings for Charlie that she never took him on? Why can't she use that money to replace the toy? The gift certificate's a good idea, but even better, if you know exactly what the toy is, go buy it yourself and hand it to her. I'm just afraid that whatever you give her, she might take it as encouragement to keep on harrassing you for money. As usual, she sounds nuts, and moneygrubbing, and I'm so glad you've got someone better now!
