Thanks for the suggestions, all!
Would a 12-year-old French boy be too much? Or would that be irresponsible of me?
Oh, but I do. Nothing is too good for my niece! I want to be that uncle.
. . . at least as long as the NSF fellowship checks flow, before I become a poor MFA student.
Last year's gift was a Nintendo 3DS.
Next year I'm thinking maybe a smartphone.
This year is a conundrum.
(She literally got her first cell phone yesterday, so no need to obsolete it in a week and a half.)
I'd spring for an iPad, but I don't want to be too irresponsible, at least when it comes to managing future expectations, but I think I have some leeway to spoil her since her parents seem to be doing a pretty good job with her. She said last night she already got her wish of me and her wowo (grandma) coming back for Christmas.
Oh, I hope I do as well with my kids if I ever manage to have any!
*imagines little Kuwises running around*
Aww.
And nix the french boy. I say go for a nice expensive french perfume. It should last her a good long while.
