At my last in-person session before my T moved away, I brought her a gift I had made for her (I crocheted a doily and starched it into a bowl) but I didn't get it out right away - I asked first if I could give her a going-away gift. She said well if it's something small that you made or something that would probably be okay. Once she said that I knew that she would be able to accept it, since it was both small and I had made it, and I gave it to her then and she loved it. She mentions it still from time to time when we are talking on the phone ("I'm sitting here at my desk looking at my crocheted bowl you made") I always feel warm inside when she mentions it.
