Should a LL give tenant a gift?

As a general rule I strive to be a landlord who handles his responsibilities under the lease in a professional and prompt manner. Similarly the tenant has their responsibilities and I just want them handled professionally and promptly. I avoid being a "friend" but am "friendly" in my interactions if this makes sense.

Tenant just had a baby. Am considering giving a $50 Buy Buy Baby gift card.

This event comes up very rarely in a person's life so it it one of the few times I would consider (would not consider birthdays for example)
