When my husband was deployed I took the kids shopping for my gifts. I would walk them around the store and point out what I would like, then I would wait outside for them and they would go in and buy it for me. I was always surprised by the gifts when I opened them on Christmas day. ( they actually pick something different than what I asked for or something similar.) Now I write a list down, we always ask the kids for a list, so I figured why can't I? It works.
My list this year is the EQ but since we are savings for a cruise that will have to wait. So I asked for fat quarters or fabric bundles, I also would not mind one of those racks with the thread of 100 spools.
:D I don't know we shall see what I get.
