I would get the Amazon Echo for my wife. She always has her hands busy with our daughter, cooking, cleaning, and being awesome. She loves music, but right now she just uses the music on her phone. I know she would love it if she had a device that could turn on music when ever she wanted, as well as many other things. If I was able to get this for her, I would eventually purchase some of the smart light fixtures so that when she walked in the door, she could turn on any light in the house she wanted to. She's very hard working, but not a huge tech person like me, so something as automated as the Echo would be perfect.

It is currently listed as 179.99, so if it's possible to throw in some of the home automation switches, that would be awesome too. They are 36.98, so 3 could be purchased and the total would be $290.00.
I see the contest is for a gift, so I'm not sure if including the switches counts.
Thanks again for doing this contest guys!
