I know I am starting early but since my fiancee and I have moved into our own place, my mother-in-law has been more than valuable. Between my fiancee and I, we work 6 jobs. When I am home she will come over and help me to dishes, laundry, and generally clean up. I want to get her something really nice for Christmas but I don't know what to get her. She never really takes time for herself but I'm not sure if she'd be comfortable going to a spa. Other than that she is very devoted to her family so I don't know what to get her. Please Help

Why don't you get her a pedicure/manicure at a spa (even a massage if you can afford it) and ask your fiance or your family to get you one for the same spa. Then you could both go together and make a day of it with lunch and all.
I'm sure she'd appreciate being pampered and she wouldn't have to go alone!

You have been the bigger guy or woman right here, and that i'm hoping that once your fmil realizes which you at the instant are not one to take the bait she'll returned off. sounds like she's attempting to reason issues in the previous you somewhat have a wager to start your existence along with her son. in all danger attempting to push yoou away, or reason lots difficulty that he does. save being the stable guy or woman who you're however at situations she would attempt to make issues puzzling. with any success your fiance will see what's occurring and notice only what a peach you're.

Since your future mother-in-law is very devoted to her family, maybe she would like a picture holder; for instance, at Pier 1, they sell a metal cross that can hold up to 19 pictures or you can try a place like Michael's for a picture holder so that she can have pictures of all her loved ones.

A gift certificate to a spa is a good idea if you go with her! If she's not comfortable with massage, you might get her a facial or manicure/pedicure. Good idea. You are lucky if you get a good mother-in-law!

How about a nicely framed picture of her son? Or maybe one of those collage picture frames where you can put multiple pics of her son, you and her son, and maybe other family pics you might have. Or handwrite a one-page thank you note, being specific about how much you appreciate all she has done for you... then frame the note for her.

I used to love my mother in law to death...Now, I could kill her myself. Jewelery is always nice for momma in law. No one can say no to that.

her fav perfume, a nice barclet or necklace, or a nice pair of earrings, see if there is something she's been wanting
