Name something you have recieved for a birthday gift. Can be something you like/dislike. Tell us about it. What you thought when you opened the package.

I'll just talk about the most recent, I guess...

Mike's birthstone is amethyst. Amethyst exudes a calming effect on its wearer, and it's my favorite gemstone.

Garnet, which is the stone that's in my wedding ring, symbolizes fidelity and loyalty.

Moonstones, which are my favorite non-gem stones, put you more in touch with your femininity, and I LOVE them.

So, last year for my birthday Mike got me a set of earrings for each stone (cause I have 3 holes in each ear), and then a necklace that had all three set in it. Pretty awesome present, and I love that he remembered all that. Well, ok, he probably didn't remember, but he knew what stones they were at least. I wuv him. =)
