Think Outside The Box
Arrange for a trusted baby sitter, pack a picnic lunch with some fresh bread, a selection of cheese, wine, glasses, a couple of petit four, a blanket or two…………….and take your best friend out for a birthday treat. Spending time with some adult conversation will benefit her greatly.
It is so easy to see a smile on someone's face and it does not have to cost a fortune. With the collusion of your friend's partner you do not even have to spring for the baby sitter. If this doesn't fit the bill, what about a movie and popcorn? Or, bring a DVD and takeaway food over when the kids have gone to bed.
Often it is the thought that counts. Most people do not want or expect expensive gifts. What they want is to know they have been remembered and some thought has gone into their gift.
Anyone can go to a store and buy something unimaginative. But it is the special gifts that are remembered.
