Jewels $ can't buy

This weekend my husband received a couple of handwritten letters from two beautiful young ladies for his birthday. Wrapped in their own words was time spent trying to find just the right ones (words) & effort as they tried to be neat, spell correctly & to say what they meant in a way that would help their Daddy understand how very much they love him. - Also, tucked inside each letter was an "exquisite jewel". Every now & then we find one where & when we least expect to. These jewels are unique but we have no doubt when we've found one! They're bright (seen in the smiles they create), they sparkle (in the eyes of the beholder), are SO clear (in the understanding they convey) .. and - they look like --- well - like ... we're doing something right...priceless! :)

P.S./cut & paste from a comment my husband made after reading this post:

Please place the notes from the girls somewhere safe… they are keepers… the notes too
