It’s The Small Things

Helloooooo everyone and TGIF! This post isn’t going to be a long one, but it’s something that I thought was worth sharing because it was super sweet. Earlier this week when I was with a girlfriend, I got a call from my sister Kristen asking when I was going to be home. She told me that she was at Kohl’s earlier in the day and she bought me a pair of really cute earrings. Now usually Kristen and I have very different styles, so I was a bit ambivalent about what her idea of “cute” for me might be, but I was still extremely touched and couldn’t wait to get home to see my new addition to my earring collection. Unfortunately by the time I got home, Kristen was already asleep. (She doesn’t have the nickname “Sleepy” for nothing!) I kind of forgot about her little surprise for me until I was in my room taking off the earrings and bracelets I had on that day when I noticed the gift placed strategically in the middle of my desk. I hurried over to my desk, and this is what I saw:

^^^ So cute!!! As soon as I laid eyes on them “awww” was the first thing out of my mouth! Not only was Kristen’s gift extremely sweet and thoughtful – but I was so impressed at how perfect her selection was for me. These earrings are so fun and quirky, and I can’t wait to put them in my second hole on my double pierced ears. I was so sad that Kristen was already asleep because I didn’t get to thank her as soon as I received the earrings, but I texted her a “thank you” and an “I love you” for when she woke up. As soon as I saw her the next day, thanking her was the first thing I did. Her little pick me up really did make my evening and the good vibes definitely carried on to the following day. The little things in life really are so special to me. Whether it be a letter in the mail, a compliment from a stranger, or a tiny pair of colorful earrings…as my featured image picture says “It’s the small things that make life big”. So true.

I hope all of you guys have a fabulous Friday and an even better weekend! What’s everyone up to this weekend? Any big plans? I wanna hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah
