a gift idea for my wife's birthday?

we've been married for 9 years. She's going to be 30, and i'm 34. She is an amazing woman. She has lupus and a bone disease. a very sick individual. but still as beautiful as the day i met her. To me she only gets prettier with age. on to the question; her birthday is about 6 days away. she is away until then for medical reasons, and i want some good ideas for what to get her, or do for her. a ladies perspective might be preferred, but any will do.

she LOVES cosmetics, okay she's a makeup FREAK. she's knows her stuff, and is very gifted. it's like an art. anyone can put makeup on, but when you're good at it, it's different. We have an ULTA kinda nearby, but i wouldn't know what to get her.... anyone that knows cosmetics, knows that it's freakin complicated/ so much variety. i was thinking a gift card from there, so she'd have to spend it there. she doesn't like to spend money on herself, and it always doing for others/ and our family. she's just that way.

the reason i'm on here, is hoping i could get some good ideas maybe. i can't spend a lot of money, because #1 she'd kill me #2 we're on a limited budget because of her health reasons and others.

she's the type that would give to and help anyone without thinking twice. she's an amazing woman, very strong, very beautiful, and she deserves something nice. I'm always cooking, cleaning, taking care of the children, etc. so don't include that stuff. i'd appreciate any ideas if anyone has any. i just want her bday to be very special. thx again for any suggestions

    awwww thats adorable. I hope everything works out for the best for you all. from what you wrote you guys deserve everything and more. you two have an amazing love story aha! back to the question.. since shes been through a lot, and since shes always doing everything for everyone and seems to be a very family oriented person; you should maybe all go out for a family dinner to her favorite restaurant. or if your on a tight budget. set up a beautiful dinner/ surprise for her at your home( make her dinner) .maybe even a surprise party for her. Then you can get her a spa/makeover gift card or something around those lines. I find that the most important, favorable gifts are homemade. for example, instead of buying a card, make a cute card for her. maybe you can make an origami heart into a card. it'd be super cute and its something different. I'll post a link of how to make one if you're interested. another thing you should/can do is buy her flowers. And just little stuff like that. It's the little stuff that tends to mean the most. If I can think of anything else I'll let you know for sure. Well, good luck. I hope she has a great birthday!
