A Christmas gift for your husband, written about him
A Christmas gift for your husband usually starts with him saying he doesn't need anything. He means it, and he'll still be buying everyone else's presents on December 23rd. So skip the gadget. A song about his Christmas, from the tree that never fits the room to the eggnog he guards, tells him you've been watching all year.

What to put in a Christmas song for your husband
Every service asks for the story differently. Whatever form you get, these are the details that make it sound like them and not like a greeting card.
He cuts our tree at the farm off Route 9 and picks one a foot too tall every time.
He makes his grandmother's eggnog on Christmas Eve and keeps the recipe card in his wallet.
He buys every gift on December 23rd and wraps them all in the Sunday comics.
In April he opened the bike shop on Elm Street, and he's worked every Saturday since.
Our flight got canceled in Denver, so he found a diner open at midnight and ordered us pie.
You give the kids the kind of Christmas you never got, and I see what that costs you.
When to order a Christmas song
Choose a service from the picks above and start a list of his December habits, comics wrapping included.
Place the order, and tell the service what music he plays while he's wrestling the tree into the stand.
Listen on your own and check names. Ask for a change, if the service offers one, where a line sounds too polished for him.
Play it after the kids are in bed, with the eggnog poured, when it's only the two of you.
Questions
What are good Christmas gifts for a husband who buys everything himself?
Something he can't buy. A song about him is about the only thing that fits, since he'd never order one about himself. Fill it with the habits he doesn't think anyone notices, like the comics wrapping and the too-tall tree. He'll pretend it's no big deal and then play it twice.
My husband isn't sentimental. Will he like it?
Probably more than he lets on. Keep it light at the start, with the funny stuff he'll recognize, and save one plain line for the end. Unsentimental men tend to like songs that tease them a bit. They're easier to accept than a speech.
Should I give it to him in front of the family?
Only if he likes attention. Most husbands would rather hear it alone first. Play it on Christmas Eve after the kids are asleep, then share it with everyone the next morning if he wants. Letting him decide is part of the gift.
How early should I order it?
Aim for mid-November. December gets busy for most services, and you want a week or two to listen and fix any wrong names. Ordering early also means you're not hiding it from him for long, which matters if he's the type who reads your screen over your shoulder.
