Help with getting a gift

I have a friend who is turning 60 and I don't know what to get her. She is a young 60 as she has adopted twin boys that are 7. She is always doing for others. Lady's any ideas?

I'm sure you know the kinds of thngs she likes or what your budget is. I'd stay away from cologne or bath and body type things unless you really know her favorite scent(s). With a couple of 7 yr. olds, she's probably busy and doesn't take a lot of time for herself. For that reason, I think I'd look around the region (no more than a 30 minute drive) for a massage school and get her a gift certificate for a massage that she could schedule at her own convenience, when the boys are in school. I would love this kind of gift.

That is a great idea... I am taking her out for dinner as well. She is an amazing lady who I so admire. She just pushes through any obstacle.👍

Don't offer to babysit......unless you are one tough cookie. Yikes....twin 7-yr old boys. (Your friend must be one amazing lady!)

I always like to give a nice loungewear set or pajamas. People who do for others all the time never spend the $ on themselves and especially if they have kids. I might make a gift basket with the pj's or robe or whatever and a bottle of shower gel and some candy or cookies and kcups or tea bags.

if you know which department store she shops, instead of you choosing bath & beauty products, get her a gift card with the intention that she use it for whatever beauty products she would like.

Hello, happy2behere.

How about some Nick Chavez hair products? Since she's busy taking care of her young children, she can pamper herself from time to time.
