I love
birthdays. I enjoy the celebrations and the
kindness of friends. I appreciate the
calls (even amid busy schedules), the thoughtful texts, gifts and cards, and
the celebrations planned. In the end,
these mean so much because they reflect important friendships.
In one
incredibly thoughtful gesture, a lovely friend of mine brought me a plate of
freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.
Just last week I had shared that they were my favorite food ― no doubt
in part because they reminded me of weekends spent at my grandparents. Well, this friend of mine ― a busy
professional and mom ― not only shared two meals with me and gave me beautiful
gifts, but in giving me the very meaningful gift of the cookies, she reminded me
that she cared about the things that matter to me.
