Sometimes, it is the minor things that you do for other people that mean so much.

My dad went to some auction and got a white baseball cap with a huge red crawfish on it. He gave it to me. It fits like a glove, and I love it.

It was a freebie, but it was so neat that he thought of me to hand it over.

Remember, the smallest gestures you do for those you love, often mean the most!

Whenever you think of someone and do something for that person, it is not a small gesture! It's huge and it means the world.

Even a small thing that is pretty insignificant in the scheme of things can mean a lot.

Love those around you. It's the best gift you can give to them, and it is the best gift you can give to yourself.

I do love the people in my life...

Emerson said "The only gift is a portion of thyself."

He knew what he was talking about!
