Going the Extra Mile for Someone You Love
We care deeply about the importance of giving and receiving meaningful gifts from loved ones, especially in moments of need. A little gesture goes a long way and lets people know we care for them when they need it the most. If someone is feeling under the weather, a thoughtful treat is always important for bringing a smile and reminding them you're there! This is why we do Gift It Friday...
Here at Smart Gift Solutions, we love for you to share your heart-warming gift experience with us. Today's Gift It Friday is from Beverely Kerry in Derbyshire, who has shared the time she was given a delightful surprise during a difficult time from her beloved husband!
"I think the best gift I ever received was from my husband when I was in hospital. I'd had surgery for cancer and was feeling very, very low. I was not allowed home because of complications which made everything seem much bleaker. I was missing my guinea pigs more than anything - all I wanted to do was go home and cuddle up with a cup of tea and a guinea pig.
He arrived one day with a gift bag - I'd told him not to bring anything because - between you and me - he has terrible taste if not helped in the right direction by several pointed hints and I had visions of him turning up with something like hideous lime green bedsocks that I would have to pretend to love.
Imagine my shock when I opened the bag to discover a Steiff guinea pig! it was the perfect present for me and really gave me a much-needed boost.
He's much better at picking gifts these days, but that Steiff guinea pig will always stand out as a measure of how much thought he put into it at a time I needed to know he cared and was thinking of me. "
Isn't that lovely? Sometimes the most special gift ideas are the simplest... taking the time to think what your beloved family, friend or colleague would appreciate the most is the best route to a successful, treasured gift!
