Birthday Gifts

I am sure everyone agrees with me when I say it’s difficult to pick up gifts. No matter how close you are to that person, you just don’t know what to pick. You know their likes and dislikes but when you are out there to purchase a gift...oh boy, it's mind-boggling.
I just can't make up my mind sometimes; I will finally get down to three or four choices and that’s when it gets difficult.

Perfect example was when I went shopping for Rita's birthday gift. I knew I was buying her a kurta; I spent an hour looking at the Kurtas and couldn't make up my mind for nuts. Finally, I got down to selecting it and THANK GOD she liked it!Now it’s Vee’s birthday on Monday and I know what to get her but I know I will be spending a long time shopping. Why can't it be made easier?

Solution: Best is to take the birthday baby along with you and get them what they like, right then and there. Problem solved! I know it kills the surprise, but they are gonna see it anyways. Birthday gifts = hours of pondering and shopping!

But sometimes when you get them the right gift its nice to see the smile bloom on their faces. Makes you feel all happy inside!
