We have a really close friend that lives in California that we pretty much talk to on a daily basis and we see and talk to him all the time in the online game that we all play. He's a really great guy and, believe it or not, we've not actually met face-to-face yet even though we've known him close to 10 years now. Anyway, every holiday is an ordeal for him for various reasons - his birthday, included. And since his birthday falls on Mother's Day this year, we decided to send him a little pick-me-up gift to let him know that we're thinking about him, hopefully without being too sappy about it. So we sent him some rum balls and a little crochet guy that I made. We're hoping it'll make him smile a bit.
