Cris surprised me the other day with what she would call “my delayed birthday gift.”
This is so awesome! I’ve always preferred “practical” over “sentimental” when it comes to gifts. This by essence is extremely practical, but the back-story involved is very endearing. So I’d say she hit two birds with one stone. I guess it’s because we think the same way – for the amount of money it would take to buy her, say, perfume… she’d probably prefer I used the money on a book instead.
