I was having such a hard time figuring out what to do for Jeremy for Christmas this year. We've been together for almost 7 years. I've never had a problem thinking of gifts for him. St. Louis Cardinals stuff, Denver Broncos stuff, clothes, slippers, books, movies, and baseball cards...examples of gifts past. I asked my friends, my co-workers - even my boss for suggestions. My boss did have one good suggestion though - sure to be a hit, thanks, that really helped. My friend, Jen, said, "Don't worry, it'll come to you." She was right. I was sitting here this morning, doing I don't remember what and "Ding, Ding, DING"!! I had the perfect idea. Something Jeremy has been asking for, hinting about, saying he wanted for as long as we've lived together. I did it! I got it! Honey, I promise, you'll LOVE it! I hope it gets here in time...
I'm the biggest pest when it comes to Christmas. Just like a little kid. All the pretty presents under the tree. It drives me absolutely crazy, when there's one for me from Jeremy and I don't know what's in it. Gifts from Jeremy only have this effect. Anyway, last weekend, he put a gift under the tree for me. I rearranged gifts under there last night and gave it a good shake. It didn't make any noise. Seems to be rather soft and sponge-like. It has the feel of clothes...
Honestly though, my greatest joy on Christmas is knowing that you have the perfect gift for someone, and having it confirmed when you see their face after they open their gift. It warms my heart when that magic happens. I think this might be one year when that happens a lot.
