I'm not sure why you want it routed. There are easier, less labor intensive ways of adding letters or other graphics and she just might like those better. Here is an example of a dog house I built.
You can pull whatever you want off the internet, re-size it, change it, print it, glue it and spray it with clear spray. Simple, clean, easy.

Check your local Sears store. Last time I was at my local Sears (two months ago) they still had a Craftmans-brand lettering system that you use a router with sitting on a shelf. Can't remember the cost though, but I remember it wasn't too much. It was in the tool department.

If you have a good smooth surface, sign vinyl is another good way to add lettering/graphics to a project.
