grateful

I'm not sure how I got so lucky, to be blessed with some of the greatest, most thoughtful, and amazing friends. Ever.  But I am.  I got a surprise package in the mail today from a friend of mine (she'll be embarrassed if I mention her name) for my upcoming birthday.  It's this beautiful Willow Tree statue, that I LOVE but have never bought for myself! The note said she is grateful for our friendship, and I couldn't agree more.  Thank you for making me feel special, and for being my friend (I know it's not always easy, especially since I'm a horrible phone coorespondant) and for just being you.  You made my day, and my 29th, ahem, birthday.
