I think she is into clothes and music... at least it seems that way to me. What do they like these days? MUDD? Abercrombie still in? I feel soo old. I remember when I was 12, someone that was 20 yrs old was ancient! -------------------- Dee Dee , Mommy to: Ashley Marie 9/05/02 Joshua Lee 2/03/00 (Our Angel in Heaven)

I, personally, would not try to buy clothes, even for my own dd.. she totally has her own style. (Hates Abercrombie, btw, but that's her) Maybe tanks or flip-flops.. but I wouldnt' buy pants or shorts. Music is a personlized thing too.. unless you know who she likes or what she likes, I wouldn't recommend it. Maybe a pretty journal (Books and Co & and BN have some really pretty ones), stationery... I love girlie shopping... so fun! -------------------- Judi momma to Cas, Em, Tege, Jordan & Ry

If you want to do clothes, how about a gift card somewhere that's a cool shop (so many are regional, I don't know if they have like Deb and Cato there where you are, but that's where my girls like to go and shop). Also my girls like cool pens, like different colored gel pens, because they are always writing notes to their friends, so those along with stationary....or maybe some costume jewelry, too - And speaking of ancient, my oldest turns 18 in exactly one week - now that makes someone feel old! And don't trust anyone over 30 -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."

You hit it on the nose, Clothes and Music. She is a clothes freak (preppy, sporty, alternative, you name it she'll wear it). Her goal in life is to wear a different outfit and hairdo everyday of the week. Her favorite store is Limited Too, but it is a bit pricy. She also loves Mudd and Aeropastle. They opened an outlet for Areopastle at the Jeffersonville mall. She also likes all of the above from madiase and supermom. Makeup (like lip gloss an nail polish), gel pens stc. Just girlie stuff. But she would be happy with anything. --------------------
