As I posted on the Insights thread this morning, DD18 has a new bf. He seems really sweet, although, I have never met him. Anyhow, last night she called me and told me all about visiting his family and Valentine's day. Mine you, this is her 1st boyfriend. He did so many nice things for her this past weekend. It is so sweet and made me think of some of the nice things some boys did for me.

One in particular . . .Years ago while in nursing school I also taught pre-school. On the days I worked I would take the bus in to Phoenix to work. When you take the bus, you meet many regulars. There was this boy on the bus and he was a regular. He would save me seats sometimes and other times would try to sit next to me in the next seat.

On my last day at my job before summer break, I got a ride to work that day. When I went in to work they told me this cute boy came in and left me something. There on my bosses desk was a single rose and a box that said "Don't Open Until Your Trip." Of course, curiosity got the best of me so I opened it. Inside the box was my favorite cookies, candy, a note with his phone number and address, a picture of him in his Irish band (we're both Irish and that came up many times in our bus-ride conversations), and a box of wipes to use after eating the treats.

It was such an incredible gift and I always will remember it as so sweet and thoughtful. I never saw the boy again. We wrote to each other once and that was it.

So, what sweet things did someone do for you and/or you did for them in the name of love?
