I may be wrong here but when my kids were 18 (boy and girl) they could care less about an old friendship of their mother's, especially never meeting this person, maybe they would appreciate it when much older. I can just see an 18 year old saying ''yeah, whatever". Maybe my kids were different. We had a friend from New Zealand that gave my son a tiny bottle of beer that apparently ages well and was told to open it on his 21st birthday. The kid is 30 and the beer is still sitting in a cupboard!
