- Helping your mom with all things technology-related
- Lunch with your family at a local diner
- A valentine's day card from your grandfather
- Little gifts from your mother that she gives you for no reason (I got a Snuggie!!)
- Visiting someone in the hospital even though hospitals creep you out
- Giving someone a birthday present they like
- The time and effort a friend puts in to having people over
- When someone gets excited about the anniversary of your first "friend-date"
- The excitement you feel about finally visiting with a friend despite your busy schedules
- Offering to watch a friend's child so she can spend time alone with her husband
- A friend trusting you enough to leave their child with you
- A two year old asking you to read a book to them "again, again!"
All these things happened to me in the last 2 days. So while I may not have gotten any roses today, I have no shortage of love to celebrate.
I really had tears well up in my eyes at the "again, again" part. Your presence was already a present today, but on that account, it was wrapped up with a bow and a huge bouquet of flowers.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kendra. She - and you - are a gift to all of us. I'm just glad you share her with us once in a while. How else would I get my cute-quotient!!
