One of the Greatest Gifts

Last winter one of my favorite friends moved to Canada. I really miss, Michelle so much. A month or so after they moved I went outside to get our mail and I noticed some little green shoots popping their little heads up in one of our flower beds. It was Michelle saying hello! A few years back as a surprise to several of our friends, Michelle secretly planted several bulbs of daffodils and tulips in our yards.
Now each year when the dreariness of winter is getting old, up pop the flowers. I love these flowers and they make me think of my sweet friend all the time. Yesterday I saw them again...Michelle! I wish you could come for a visit. We miss you. And I haven't had a decent pedicure since you left! There is no one that can take your place!

I have received some great and meaningful and thoughtful gifts in my life time but none quite as unique or that keep on giving in the same beautiful way.
