I have this wonderful friend who is beyond generous. Not only does she always pay for dinner even though I hate it when she does it and usually end up arguing at the restaurant but she always buys my gifts all the time. Now that I have Elle, we are getting gifts left and right. I own a dry cleaners so all I can offer her is free dry cleaning but that doesn't even compare to all of her generosity. Plus when I was pregnant and my husband was working on our house, she let me move in for a couple of months to get away from the dust and fumes. While I was staying with her she did my laundry and bought groceries and even made my bed. I am really bad at gift giving esp to her cuz she is just too happy with any old thing and I always get stumped on what to get her because I want it to be meaningful and I usually end up getting her nothing cuz I just can't think of it.
I really need to repay her for all her generosity, love, and support not because of just the gifts, but for just being who she is to me. She really outdid herself this Christmas and even though it's late, I really need to do something for her.
I don't have many friends but the ones I do have mean the world to me. In their own individual ways, they all give me so much. I don't know what I would do without them and even though I haven't been hanging out with them much since having Elle, I need to show them all how much they mean to me. I feel so guilty that I am so bad about showing them just how much I love and appreciate them in my life.
I love you P, K, R, and J!! I am blessed to be apart of your lives and forever grateful!!
I love my friends

Your friend sounds very generous and sweet!
Re: my blog- we live in the DC metro area.
How about a really great handmade bag? You rock at those and it'd be a thoughtful gift. I have a friend that is the same way by the way and I always feel like I should do something to give back to her... we talked once and she said what mattered to her was that I gave of myself to her... my time and energy. That is truly what really matters.
