Would like to do something nice, but am at a loss what to get someone who (a) works for you (don't want to overstep any boundaries) and (b) already has kids?

I basically gave her extra time off - "off the books" - which I figured was the best gift I could hand her, but might be nice to send a card, and get something as well.

Ideas?
