    Closing the Distance Gift

    We're closing the distance in August (!!!), and I would love to surprise him with a gift of some kind. The last few months leading up to closing the distance have been the worst (the anticipation is killing both of us which means a lot of fighting) and so I would love this gift to be a "this is a new beginning for us" kind of gift. Any ideas? I was thinking maybe something to hang on our wall, but I can't come up with anything and google isn't helping. Did anyone do something cool or have any ideas for me?

    Well, what's your budget? Would you be willing to make something yourself? What do you, personally, think has meaning to you both?

    It'll take a lot more than words and guns
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle
    The hands of the many must join as one
    And together we'll cross the river

      My budget isn't a lot. I would almost prefer to make something because of that, but I can't come up with anything that really symbolizes our journey so far. The two things that I can think of he already made as gifts for me.

        Maybe something related to maps, or something that points to your cities or countries.
        I made love to him only twice, she thought and looked at the man laying asleep beside her. And yet still it is as if we have been together forever, as if he has always known my life, my soul, my body, my light, my pain

          I like dc's idea, why don't you print a map from where he is from and a map from where you're from and put them on small canvas pieces? Put stickers on them spelling "Finally Together" or "Distance Closed" or something like that!
