>> Can you ask her if she would accept a small gift from you? I wanted to bring my T a small gift from a European trip I as taking and asked if he would be OK with that. He said yes, but of course we'd have to talk about it, and we did :)


I *could* ask her, technically, but I would never do that. I'd be too afraid of the answer, and too embarrassed to ask (I've never asked her a question about herself, even when invited to, and I've never asked for anything I think I might need, either). Plus, it would sort of blow the "surprise," and spontaneity of the moment, if she suspected in advance I was going to get her something.

Although, after today....well, I'm not liking her (or me) very much right now. I'd actually be surprised if I lasted much longer as a client, so I might not even be around for her b-day. :( Although, we've been through this sort of rough spot before, but.....it's sort of getting old for both of us, so I don't know.

Has anyone ever gotten (or made) something for their T's birthday? Was it received? How did it go?
