What about a home foot spa thingie with a set of lotions, polishes, foot scrubs, etc. AND an offer to take her pre teen son to the movies or one of his sporting events for the day? That way, she gets to pamper herself a bit and get away from the kid. Plus, with the at home spa thingie, she would use it over and over again.
What does she like to do? Is she a reader? Since you met her at Church, why not go to Family Life or some other Christian bookstore and get her a collection of books, put them in a nice basket with some candles and bubble bath, a nice CD or something.
What about a homemade gift certificate for a night out: dinner and a movie just the 2 of you? Have the hubby watch your kid and hers!
For someone women, getting things that they need for the house is for them and very much appreciated. For everyone that kicks the vacuum cleaner box under the tree (like my mom did one year--she got a very nice suede coat after that! LOL) there is another one that is excited because it is "just what she wanted" If she is a baker, get her some nice pans and one of those cookie shooter things or a nice hand mixer. IF she likes to sew, what about a gift certificate to a fabric store or a gift certificate for a class on learning how to knit and then some knitting stuff.
