I received an invitation to a party last week. It was from my wonderfully talented artist, photographer, writer, author, poet and amazing friend Cathy.
Why was I surprised, when upon arriving at the party, to find that it was not a traditional birthday party? She had planned an elaborate appreciation celebration for her friends. It was beautiful. She had meticulously made up personalized place settings and gift bags for each person. She had filled the room with women from the many walks of life that she had been friends with over the years (not many years mind you, she is still very much a spring chicken!) The afternoon was filled with laughter, love, good food and sprinkled with little speeches that touched us all.
I was truly honoured to have been chosen to be there.
Much love,
Wendy
