Hello prim26, Make sure you and your wife have Wi-Fi turned on. Even if you are away from your home network you still need Wi-Fi turned on to do AirDrop. I don't really understand that myself, but it works with the Wi-Fi turned on. The other thing to check is your AirDrop settings under Settings > General > AirDrop. Select the appropriate option.
