Wow! Celebrations bring out the creativity in all of us!
If you read my last post you know I've been doing some baking of my own to share the joy.
I also wanted to come up with a way to show my love and gratitude toward my friends and family.
My work threw me a shower a week or so ago. Many signed the card and gave us an AMAZING gift card, in addition to other gifts!
My friends have spent much time and money planning parties in Baby Girl's honor. They have been so happy to do it!
I am so grateful when I think about the kindness and generosity of those around me. How could I even begin to show my appreciation?
Thank you cards are definitely the traditional way to go. I have certainly written my share in the last month.
But for some, it just didn't feel like enough.
Some of my friends are so crafty. They've crocheted and quilted and made things for me and Baby Girl.
What could I offer?
I can bake!
I made these cake pops to bring in to school. What elementary staff doesn't speak the language of desserts?! This, coupled with an email and a few Photoshop-made thank-you notes should do the trick!
And for any who took the time (and money!) to plan or contribute for a party, I made these:
I wrapped them in tissue paper and paired them with a hand-written note.
Both sets of grandparents will also get these cookies to show our love and appreciation. :-) Of course, these will not be as cute as the real bundle they are waiting on!
I hope my friends know how much I love them.
