I wish the whole world could know how much I treasure our friendship.

You can make me laugh harder than any person I know, you are comforting and tender when my heart is hurting, and you have always taught me to nurture my creativity and my love for others. I miss you every single day we are apart, and I can't wait to see you this weekend!
The homemade chocolate-peppermint truffles that I sent do not even beGIN to show how much I love you...

Guess you'll have to settle for a great big birthday-hug, just a few days late!
