Feeling the Love

The Bestie very sweetly got this for me for christmas. She secretly hijacked my order and paid for it herself. Just because she wants to be sure she's getting a gift which I truly fancy. Very naughty and yet very thoughtful of her! How can I not love her?


And then girlfriend, S lovingly knitted a scarf for my birthday. Behind each handmade gift is, I find, a warm-hearted effort to bring smiles of delight to the receiver's face. Which was exactly what happened last night when the pretty scarf was presented to me.

I've always admired those with nimble hands because I, on the contrary, am very awkward with mine. Yes, even simple tasks like wrapping a gift can be quite strenuous for me. Hence, close ones in the know will not expect a handmade gift from me.

The self-knitted scarf is, thus, something which I sincerely appreciate.

I heart my two gifts.

I feel loved and blessed.
