Maiko had been back from Japan for a few weeks. But yesterday was the first time I get to see her. She’s been busy, I was too. She delivered these cute hand-made bean-bag-like cuteness to me. Very sweet of her. I’m so glad she’s back. I have been missing having her around. As I’m getting older, I truly learn to appreciate genuine close friendships. Maiko is top of the short list. I’m lucky.
