April Journal #2

Write about the most recent gift you gave someone.

We have a lot of January / February birthdays in our family so the most recent gift was a birthday gift. Sometimes the celebrations are combined so the line is a little blurred in terms of what gift was MOST recently given. But… one of the last gifts I gave was to my best friend of 19 years. I gave her these ridiculously soft and cozy chromatic mid-rise reading socks in blush from Indigo; you know in case you wanted to pick up a pair. (Advertisement over haha). and I also got her a copy of 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think by the incredible Brianna Weist. I actually gave this book as gifts to two other friends at Christmas. It made my heart happy when I was over at her house last week and I saw the book on her desk; it looked “well loved;” you know how a book looks when you read it and go back and re-read sections –with dog-earred pages. She has highlighted stories in our conversations, so I am going to say that this gift was successful.

What about you?
