. I recently cleaned out a cupboard and found a scrapbook left behind by X, containing all the cards he received at his birth and his first birthday. Should I give it to her when I see her? X clearly didn’t care for it, but she might.
Definitely give it to her! It gets clutter out of your house, it has meaning to her, and your ex is not likely to take care of it at present. It will also make you look like the good guy, which doesn't hurt your standing with the family. This is a good thing as you will have to deal with them on some level for the next 20 years.
As for the wedding dress - donate it. It will turn a negative into a positive force in someone else's life.
