consider what her interests are, any hobbies she may have. does she enjoy reading, cooking, exercise etc. try to narrow down to one or two areas and think of something along those lines.

That's my Christmas wish and even though David pretended that he didn't hear me when I said "I wish I could have an iPod this Christmas" when he asked me (in a very casual manner as if it's just one of our talks ;) ) for a gift that I really like, I'm certain that I'm gonna have it. LOL

My suggestion is talk to her and ask her of things that she really likes to have... Don't let her suspect that it's for Christmas, though.

well, as for me, I always wanted my husband to give me a jewelry box so that everytime he gives me a jewelry or something small, I can keep them all in one safe place.

I'm eyeing a sliver ring I saw at a craft show by a certain designer. It's both our names with a heart. I hope he remembers which one I want.

I think a very fancy photo/memory album, with a note from you, how you're looking forward to filling it with all of your experiences together. Take a few of your favorite pictures, and put it in the first page, and label it "The Beginning"..

If it's going to be, it's up to me!

I did this sort of thing for one of Andre's birthdays. I did so many cards and scrapbooks to fill the time while we were apart, I can literally fill a room.
