What would you do? Tenant wants a 6 month lease at renewal time.

Hi everybody, I want to hear what you would do in my situation. 

I have a great tenant who pays on time every time and never has complaints or issues with rules or anything, for that matter. She has been with me for 2 years, each on a 1 year lease term. It is a 1br 1ba 800sft apt.  It's time for her renewal and she wants to be in a 6 month lease term because she is not sure what her plan is for the end of next year. 

I really want to stick with 1 year terms but I really like her as a tenant and how easy she makes things.  I have thought about allowing it this once but going back to 1 year leases as I dont want this to become the normal.  

Let me know what you guys would do. I really appreciate all the feedback. Let me know if you have any questions as well.
