Gift Giving Husband


I never considered myself a "gifts person". I am terrible at giving gifts. I over analyis it, stress about it, and end up going so practicle, it's almost disheartening. It's not that I don't want to make people happy with a pretty package with a shiny bow, but it just never works out like I want it to. Because I am such a terrible gift giver, I never put much thought into receiving gifts. I like getting gifts, but typically I would choose quality time. But lately, my husband has been showering me with presents; and I love it!

This past week a Real Simple Magazine showed up in the mail, and Kevin simply said "I think I ordered this for you." I love the magazine, but it was never something I thought to order for myself. He has bought some major gifts lately, i.e. the tickets to Phantom, but I really like the little ones. It shows a simple, "I was thinking of you today." I pray I can show him the same.

  1. If it makes you feel any better I love getting practical gifts. I always "need" something and I'd much rather have something I "need" then something I don't.
