Idk why it can't be personal. I just got nervous and started googling gift giving to Ts, and I came across this article where it suggests the gifts should not be personal to the giver. Maybe because then it just is more for me than it is for my T?

Printing out the meaning is a good idea. I wasn't going to wrap it or anything so as not to make too big a deal, so I'll have to think about how to work that in. The carved elephant was just going to be in my pocket or something.
