You could always do a "tribute" gift, such as a donation to a children's charity in her honor.

I love the Willow Tree figurines (especially the angels). There's one for almost every occasion. Try googling it.

ask her superior if gifts are allowed and to make a suggestion. I also like to the idea of taking her out to eat . and donations in her name (or the name of her order) WOULD BE NICE.

The Willow Tree figurines are nice. Also, maybe some pretty notecards or if she is a reader a gift certificate to a book store.
