Generally speaking, my husband and I do not get each other gifts for Christmas. We decided that when the kids came along, Christmas would be for them and our joy would be from their excitement and happiness. This is not to say that there have not been a few exceptions along the way - generally from my husband. The catch is, he can NOT WAIT until Christmas for me to open my gifts.
This gift came about from a series of misinterpretations, a series of fortunate events. I had been shopping to potentially get my sister a Pandora charm for her bracelet and my husband misunderstood and thought I was shopping for myself. All from a well placed/discarded catalog and backing up a TV ad (thank you TV Gods for TiVo/DVR). It really wasn't my intention to get one - but its jewelry and I love it!
That's gorgeous! Love the story behind it, too.
