Whatever you decide to give for a gift, the presentation counts as well. Consider starting a week ahead with a series of a small gift each day culminating with the large gift on her birthday. The gifts don’t have to be big but something which you have put thought into. For instance, a letter talking about your life together, a nice scarf, a box of four truffles…you get the idea. At first, she will think you are crazy. By the day of her birthday , she will have built up a great sense of anticipation. Hope you are successful in giving her a tremendous day.
