Christmas is coming early for my family. Literally. See, my Mom's husband lives in England, and just after Thanksgiving, she's moving back there for a few months, then coming back here again... yeah, it's kind of a cycle. Anyways, the big problem I'm having, is the gift I get her needs to be small enough that she can take it with her to England, yet I don't want to get her some crappy gift either.
She seems to like either "cute things" (which my sister already bought her a 'set' of small teddy bears), and interesting gadgets. Or gag gifts.
Seriously, I really appreciate any help on this. I'm gonna keep searching for something, but any I could definitely use some ideas.

Have if possible you/sisters pose for a nice portrait... Then make a small album of pictures(baby pictures, family vacation pictures) for her to take with her on her trip.. It's not expensive and it's very thoughtful.... good luck

A really nice carry on bag so she can actually use the gift for her trip instead of having to transport something . . . other things that might be along the same lines: an iPod shuffle full of music to listen to on her travels, travelers' cheques or a nice jacket that would be good in all seasons she may encounter going back and forth.

When my husband and I went on our honeymoon, one of our favorite things to do was browse in small second hand and novelty stores. One thing I found was a small cross-stitched picture in a frame with the words "Happiness is a Huggy Hubby". You might try something like that.
Good luck!

You could get her a necklace with the birthstones of all her children on it, any jewlery shop will be able to help you with that.
