I am certainly not getting reimbursed for the tuition.
They are gifting me back simply because they love me.

So they can accumulate their capital gains and use that toward my kids college while my 529k with capital gains can be used right away. And there’s nothing saying they need to gift me back in the exact same year the exact same amount…and there’s no need for a justification for the gift…as long as it’s below the gift tax exclusion threshold…. so there…
